inspired...

after going to Mystic Aquarium i got inspired by the beautiful creatures...

1 fish, 2 fish, red fish, blue fish...

On Sunday i had a chance to go to the famous (at least here in Connecticut) Mystic Aquarium. Here are some pictures of the lovely animals...

tgi...w?

way back in the 1990's, friday was the night to watch t.v. TGIF. our family (and others) would gather 'round and watch 'family oriented' tv shows like, Family Matters, Step By Step, Perfect Strangers, Boy Meets World (but we really didn't watch Boy)... but now... wednesday is now my night! :-) america's next top model. yes, i LOVE it. i could care less about Tyra. it's the creativity in the photo shoots, the fashion, and the drama. it's entertaining. Then there's Project Runway. awesome. I totally wish i could sew after watching that show. it's great!

just a little flashback...

babies everywhere...

i have quite a few friends that are pregnant. here's the second gift i've painted...

the art and flair of... kellyjo?

one of my favorite artists for the past year has been Mary Blair. She did some AMAZING concept art for Disney's Cinderella, Alice In Wonderland, and Peter Pan. i love her stuff! and i have noticed that my last two paintings are definitely inspired by her...

this is for some friends of mine that are having a baby girl...

this was inspired by a show i watched on the discovery channel about the giant squid. it lives so deep in the ocean, there isn't a whole lot that we know about it. I'm not particularly into squid but the movement and the color of this mysterious creature sparked my creativity...
