A little more love

For your valentine

Having a husband and son who surf, I know it can be difficult to find a Valentine card that suits their personality.  So I've been playing around with ideas and thought it would be fun to add humorous quotes to a few of my prints. 

Surfing Valentine Prints

I've been searching for you everywhere.

I love you more than my surfboard!

You're swell retro surfing Valentine

All the prints are produced with high-quality archival pigment based inks on luster paper with beautiful color, which won't fade so your favorite surfer can save your love note forever.  I've also added a sturdy backing so they can be placed on an easel or framed and hung after Valentines Day, making them a gift that keeps on giving!

I'm still playing around with humorous Valentine quotes for surfer boys and beach babes and will be adding more here soon.  Stop on by and feel free to let me know what you think!

In My Studio

Creating an art studio filled with hearts, love and creativity.

A whole new world.  Every turn a surprise, every moment red-letter.  Let me share this whole new world with you.  Liberally taken from "A whole new world" by Aladdin.

 

There's nothing like the thought of Valentine's Day to get one's heart soaring, and one's mind churning with creativity.  At least not in my studio where paper, in the colors of red, pink and purple, have been folded, cut and shaped into a kazillion little hearts all waiting to be strung together.

And pom poms, in the same luscious colors, along with a string of purple beads, now adorn the chandelier,  creating a dazzling display with which our cat would love to play.  The chandelier is hung right above my art table, and it has become one of Roxy's favorite decorations.

The art manikins, standing above my display board, have been linked together with a bit of pink rick-rack and each hold a pink heart.  I'm thinking the use of these decorated manikins would create a fun Valentine's drawing and painting project for my art students - maybe on watercolor paper!  Seriously, for the month of February, how cute would that be?!

I love having my studio decorated for the holiday and will be adding and posting more images throughout this week - so please come back to let me know what you think.
