I saw this watercolor whilst browsing the etsy.com art section today. It contains several personal symbols of mine, treated with an artist's hand, in a much more delicate way than I have ever done. I'm in love with this little image. I hope to hang it in my studio some day soon!

If you would like, you can go visit this shop and have a look at some other pieces by this artist. If you're feeling bloggy, check out leontine's blog right here on blogger.com.

"This painting is from a series called "Scaring the Crows (or rather, not scaring them very effectively at all, and actually giving them rather a nice perch and some shade)." It is watercolor with some goauche on top and pencil underneath. Slightly more than 9 x slightly less than 7 inches."

Three color 4x4 inch one of a kind woodcut print by Marissa (mLee). She had this little gem listed in her shop amongst loads of other fab prints, and I bought it a few days after I told her she should raise the price. LOL. Srsly.

The color combinations she uses are awesome. I really haven't seen a lot of color woodblock prints I like in the past. So go see Marissa's stuff. You can visit her on etsy.com at her shop:
