    Yellow Baby Moccs – A Nursery Painting


    2014 - 07.13

    As a mommy to one adorable Giuliana, I have a great group of fellow mommies on Instagram that I love to follow who create handmade baby items! A super cute trend that I love is the baby  moccasins!! There is just something about those cute little baby legs wearing brightly colored baby moccs! I love how my daughter inspires me <3 I created her a 5″x7″ Yellow Baby Moccs painting, and matted it to 8″ x 10″ and put it in her room! I LOVE IT!!! I can’t wait to create other in a variety of colors and have them up for sale in the soon to be Etsy shop! Until then, email me for your custom pair!!

    2014 - 06.25

    AHH!!! I cannot believe my baby girl turned one years old already!! My heart breaks!!! She is my best friend and I love watching her grow every day!

    We had a beach bash for her with family and friends, and I of course had to create some special touches for her party!

    Here are some details below:

    SMASH CAKE SESSION!

    Smash Cake

    It was a rainy afternoon on the day of her birthday, so I setup she smash cake session in her bedroom (Thank Goodness for tile floors!)

    Let’s start with some Etsy finds first, because I love to support fellow handmade crafters! The anchor fabric bunting banner is from Vintage Green Limited (link to purchase: https://www.etsy.com/listing/188168412/bunting-banner-fabric-pennant-flags?ref=shop_home_feat_3) as well as her super cute nautical cake banner (Link to purchase: https://www.etsy.com/listing/152436909/nautical-cake-topper-banner-party-mini?ref=shop_home_active_5&ga_search_query=anchor%2Bcake%2Bbanner)

    The paper garland is from Any Occasion Banners (link: https://www.etsy.com/transaction/201971686)

    I decided to go back to my latin roots and create her an Anchor Piñata! I customized it with her name on it! :)

    I also made a custom anchor corn hole game set for the party! I love this! I can’t wait to use it at all our parties and beach outings.

    I also created her a 1 year birthday felt crown :)

    Shrimp Boat Painting


    2013 - 05.24

    Hi All! A Facebook friend of mine who lives in Savannah, GA, posted a photo of some Shrimping Boats in a Harbor, and I really wanted to recreate it with a little bit of a different perspective. The setting is sunrise, with a warm glow bouncing off the weathered shrimping boats, docked in the harbor. I named the shrimping boat painting “Safe In The Harbor”. It is 24″ x 48″, acrylics on canvas, and it is available for sale!

    Gulf Coast Painting with Resin


    2013 - 02.08

    This is one of my favorite paintings that I did, mostly because it was a painting that I did in my free time.

    I used Oil Paints in a stick form, on wood board, to create the waves crashing here on the Florida Gulf Coast. This Gulf Coast Painting was then coated in epoxy resin…one of my FAVORITE things to do! I loveeeee resin!

    Here is the final product:

    Acrylic Yellow Phalaenopsis Orchid Painting on Photo Paper


    2012 - 06.15

    I was trying to print this picture I took of a yellow phalaenopsis orchid with bright stripes on it, when the ink from my printer had a reaction to the photo paper, and gave me this awesome blue background! I decided to use acrylic paint to enhance the photograph to create a yellow phalaenopsis orchid painting! Below are the results!
