New Orleans Shot Gun Houses (six up) - $300.00

Image size is 9"X36". Paper size is 11 X 38. Ink and watercolor on 100% cotton paper. I finally finished one with all six houses up on one piece of paper! So, I had to post. The image is a bit blurry, so I may have to repost. I do think the colors here are more vibrant and feel more indicative to the real colors used. It is just so exciting to see them all together.

Blue Balcony - SOLD

Green Two Door Brick - $50.00

Two Door Brick Column - Red $50.00. Ink and watercolor on cotton paper. Image size 6X9, paper size 7.5X11.25. The colors are really a beautiful brick red and a reddish pink on the boards. Seriously looks nothing like the photo. My camera is just not capturing reds and the computer is not showing reds.

Shotgun Houses Hanging

I've now carved out six different shotgun houses. I've decided to hand print the series in different colors and then hand tint them in different colors, making each one unique and different. The series are selling for $50.00 a piece. I'm also printing them all up together in different colors as well. This is in progress. I will post once I have them done. For now I will be hand tinting six of the onesies at a time and posting. Please note! The colors are so vibrant and extraordinary, it was impossible for me to catch it on film. You must come in and see for yourself. Where the colors are quite different, I will make a note.

Shotgun House V - SOLD

Oil based inks and watercolor on 100% cotton paper. Image size 24" X 9". Paper size varies approximately 2" over image size on all sides. This one was painted in brighter colors than the previous ones. I've got this idea for doing them in very vibrant colors, almost pop artish looking. When I find some time I'll try a batch like that.

New Orleans Shot Gun Houses

Well, I finally did it. I've had this idea for some time to cut out block prints of the New Orleans shot gun houses and print in different colors. The first one posted is the blocks printed in different earthy colors next to each other without any hand tinting/painting on top. Below that is different variations with handpainted water color on top. I figured while I'm anxiously waiting for the logistics of my arrival in New Orleans, I might as well submerge my creativity to that environment. I would like to cut out at least another four blocks. I think it would be especially cool to see four foot of houses all printed up on one long piece of paper. These are two foot across. I've already had a request and presale for houses in greens and blues, thus the pallette below.

Hand tinted monoprint. Paper size 11X15. Image area size 8X10.
Hand tinted monoprint. Paper size 11X15. Image area size 8X10. I was going to post these yesterday, but as some of you may know, we were out of electricity for a day! Something blew up and caught fire at the city's power plant. Can you imagine? I stayed home working on some block prints that I've had in my head for years that were waiting for a the right moment to give birth. I can't wait to share.

Fluer De Lis in a bedroom

I've been waiting for an opportunity to use this gold and chocolate bedroom. The perfect accent!

Fluer De Lis - BOTH SOLD

Fluer De Lis I - One of a kind, hand water colored print on 100% cotton paper. paper size 11X15. Image size 8X10. One of a kind, hand water colored print on 100% cotton paper. paper size 11X15. Image size 8X10. While organizing in preparation for the (fingers crossed) big move I came across some -one of a kind- hand watercolored monoprints. I decided I should start posting them. I thought this might be a good fundraising idea to build my new pottery studio at the (knocking on wood) new digs. There are only these two fluer de lis left, though I may print more at a later date. These are one of a kind in that the ink is applied by hand in different colors during the printing process and then meticulous watercoloring done over the top of that.

Laurie's Fireplace Tiles

I think we finally finished Laurie's fireplace tiles. They are beautiful! and of course look so much richer in real life. She finally had to take a trip to Mom's add sift through the details of the project to figure out what just wasn't sitting right with the whole thing. Some of the tiles went through five firings to get the colors right. Only for my sista!
