Today’s Featured Artist is…Mystele Kirkeeng AKA: littleglimpses!

So, tell us…
Q: What are your favorite mediums to work with?
A: Hmmm. That’s a hard one because I’ve only been at this painting thing since February of this year (2008).  I’m still finding my wings here! Right now, I really enjoy anything I can get my hands on, from vintage, rusty stuff to lyrics from spirituals to new, crisp decorative papers. I paint/detail with acrylics, charcoal, inks, watercolors, and oil pastelsR

Hope everyone had a fun and safe 4th of July!

Just had to share…

I tried super hard to do a Fourth of July Painting and get it listed in time this year…Here it is: America The Beautiful

It was done on a big sheet of wood mounted into an antique window frame measuring 33″ X 30″.
While I made it, I think I listened to every Ray Charles video on You Tube there is! Especially this one…Don’t be afraid to sing along!

We painted trees tonight. I felt so proud when I looked over at Jacob (6 yrs old)…I just had to take a short camera video of him…Look at his sweet little hand holding the paintbrush…and I must say, we will be framing that masterpiece!
PS:  Yes, he did it all by himself…I just told him the steps to take and he ran with it.

…12 hrs later…here it is framed…
