Galaxy Nest

It's been a busy busy 2012 so-far. I'm hard at work on a ton of art that I can't show the world for a while.

I did finish a new owl personal piece recently. It's a pair of owls snuggling in a cozy little galaxy nest. This will replace the 3-year-old acrylic owl painting that was formerly over our fireplace.

Oh, and no little owlets on the way... I actually didn't quite realize the interpretations of the egg until my husband pointed it out. But, as this is going to grace our living space for years to come, I can only see us growing into it.






I painted this at a big huge size and then had it printed through Costco (Snapfish) on a nicely sized 40"x30" wrap canvas. I am quite happy with how the canvas turned out (the photos don't do it perfect justice.)

Happy New Year!

I've been taking a week-long break here between Christmas and New Years. Enjoying visiting with family, baking (below), and -um- more Skyrim.

(I've also been working on a new personal piece, which I will share here soon.)

Anyhow, hope everyone had a wonderful slew of winter holidays. Happy New Year! =)
