let the beauty…. day 11

i frantically tried to finish this baby before it was too dark to take a pic.  i have a little scuffing of the edges left to do…  but i absolutely love this Rumi quote and i knew it had to be a sign.  special thanks to prairie girl for your help with this… and a huge thank you to Valerie who posted the quote on creative thursday’s in the fish bowl eCourse.

happy friday!  i may just take a day off tomorrow and maybe even sunday.  i haven’t decided.  weekends are kind of funny. … some are more productive than others. 

thanks for peeking at my daily deSigns…  have a wonderful weekend.

see you soon….kim

inspired 365 – day 10

hi all….. okay, i admit there are days when i am not completely inspired….and days that i am barely inspired….and days that i am not inspired at all….  but inspired 365, 24/7~ wow~that’d be pretty awesome.  or would it? :)  i mean, yeesh some days i am so inspired, i feel like my head might just spin right off. 

how bout you?  :) 

here’s to inspiration…  xo xo kim

kindness 365 ~ daily deSign #9

hi there,

i am popping in before i head out into the snow with andy.  yes, i said snow…and LOTS of it… sticky, wet, slushy snow is here.  but according to mr. weatherman, it’s not here to stay…not quite yet, anyway.  :)  phew……

so, here are some pics of my day#9 deSign.  it’s part of a new collection i like to call “urban grunge”. 

thanks again for peeking.

big thanks, too,  for the lovely comments and emails of encouragement.  this has been an amazing journey so far!  see you soon, kim

daily deSign #8

popping in quick with #8.  i went ahead and did a companion for the perfect coffee design i painted saturday.  here they are together. 

til next time, kim

daily deSign #7 ~ Autumn

i fell in love with this quote by William Cullen Bryant and i just had to paint it.  i figured i better do it quickly as autumn seems to be slipping away from us.

thanks so much for popping in.

i hope you are enjoying a most lovely autumn day….  until tomorrow…kim

daily #6 & happy thanksgiving

 

i know i said i was done with coffee for a bit….but i had to do this one.  and i may have to do a companion as well. 

this design is a mixed media painting.  i used layers of paper, paint, several different mediums, ink and pastels. i’m  happy with it so far, but i may “’tweak” it after i let it sit for a bit.  it has a somewhat “grungy” feel, which i am really digging these days.

oh and  look at the lovely blue jays, that i saw thru my studio window this morning.  arent’ they gorgeous?  :)

before i sign off for today, i want to wish all of my fellow Canadians a most happy and joy filled thanksgiving.  many blessings to all….
