Crescent Moon

When I first started this blog, I was going to share my watercolor flowers with you. But if you have visited my website, you know that work with several mediums and have several styles. 
So this little Aceo of mine, was too cute to be left out of my blog. I have had a productive week, and have made several Aceo paintings and will be sharing them with you everyday :) 
This one is watercolor on cold press paper.

Majestic Fall

I got my notice yesterday, yup... I lost my job!  
My last day would be Dec 19th :( 
I don't know how I feel right now, I really don't. Part of me is feeling good, a great sense of relief since it had been a emotional roller coaster recently at work,  but part of me is worried.  This is my first time losing a job. 
Part of me feels free, now I have more time to dedicate to my art, maybe I can be a full time artist, what I always wanted.... I don't know, I keep hearing everything happens for a reason, I hope this has a good reason behind it.

Seller's Permit

I came home today to find my Seller's Permit in the mail.
After all I have been through, this week at work, it was such a nice treat. Now I'm on my way to open my Etsy shop. Yeyyyy! I can't wait.
I will keep you posted and will announce my opening.

Velvet Touch


I finished these velvety flowers last night, after a very stressful day at work. It took my mind off all the things happening at my job.
Sometimes I wish I could just travel through my paintings,  a colorful, soft world!  I bet that would calm me down!

Bored me and an empty canvas!

I was bored the other day and I had this canvas sitting in my studio forever, which I couldn't come up with an idea for.
I had tried something on it, but wasn't what I wanted so... it was abandoned :(
Finally it hit me, it was its turn! I had a cool idea for it.
Came out nice! What do you think?

"Autumn Twilight"


I just finished this custom painting for one of my clients. I named it "Autumn Twilight".
I wish you could all see it up close and touch the texture of the leaves.
He absolutely loved it! I'm so glad he liked it. :)
It sure suits the season. Fall is defiantly here.

Leaves are changing, birds are flying far away.
There is music in the meadows; in the air.
Autumn is here. Skies are gray, but hearts are mellow.

Actually I had a hard time letting this piece go, I don't know why, but some times I get attached to a piece I create, as if it's my baby.
Too attached I guess!

I finally did it

Well, here I am... entering the world of blogging. I have been debating for a while if I should start a blog or not. Finally I decided to give it a shot and see where it takes me.

I'm an artist living in the beautiful state of California with the best boyfriend, one could ever have; and my lovely lazy cat.

I started this blog mainly for my artworks; to get my art out there and see what people think.

I love painting. It's my passion. I love to try and explore different styles and mediums.

I will update my blog and post my new artworks. To find out more about me go to my website: http://www.worksofartbysara.com/
