It’s starting to look a lot like New Years. Little by little. Loving loving loving the amaryllis inspired theme.

“Six simple paper flowers”. NOT!! Thought I would add a little red to my vase arrangement. Found a video called six simple paper flowers. Unless you have a day (or more!) To do this, don’t be fooled. There is really only ONE simple flower. I do think they came out nice. And, it was my day to piddle. I #paperflowers #colleenshannonart

Studio Overhaul. There’s even room now for Bruno’s new Christmas bed. He’s always looking for a spot to hang out while I’m painting. #colleenshannonart #neworleansartist #studiolife

Strained off a new batch of blackberry/cherry bounce. Sorted out the cherries. Made a simple syrup with brown sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon. And preserved the cherries for Old Fashioned cocktails! I was inspired by this fantastic Old Fashioned I had at Christmas lunch. Ok. Back to the studio #constantlycreating #merrychristmastome #colleenshannonart #neworleansartist #neverbored

Working on a legit paper closet on this rainy day. Emptied it out into the studio. It always gets a lot worse before it gets a lot better. Winter rainy days preparing for spring. #colleenshannonart #neworleansArtist #studiolife

It is mask repair week. Got the two faces hung. Now I’m gluing fish man. Though I hung the two faces, I may move them to one side of the large painting with fish man on the other. My life is so exciting. I’m also ecstatic about 50 sheets of paper arriving. Only an artist gets excited about the materials of there work showing up.

My secret Santa brought me a bundle of beautiful chocolate colored leather. Got a leather hole punch, needle, thread and made my first little project. Leather pot holders. Hoping to work my way up to moccasins... one stitch at a time.
