Art and Food

While helping my seven-year-old daughter clean her room, I came across a piece of paper. Written on it, in my daughter's hand, was a single sentence:

"I have a huge appetite for Art and Food."

Yup. That's my kid.

MotherGoddess

I've been working on a series of paintings celebrating the beauty of pregnancy.... my "MotherGoddess" series. I love the beautiful voluptuous curves of pregnancy! For me, pregnancy was the ultimate expression of my womanhood. While pregnant I felt so alive, so beautiful, so powerful. Pregnancy taught me to truly appreciate and respect the strength of my own body. I am PROUD of my body, and all that it has accomplished. I have given birth to three beautiful children. My body has nourished them, and made them strong.

Pictured here are "MotherGoddess 2" and "MotherGoddess 4"

Anti-Valentines

OK... so let's suppose that your best friend is feeling a little cranky with all the lovey-dovey talk of Valentines, because she just broke up with her boyfriend. What are you going to do to cheer her up? Pink Kitty has the answer... my exclusive line of "break-up cards"! They are just the thing to help mend broken hearts, or at least bring a smile to the face of those not so into the whole "valentine" thing.
There are three different designs available:

"boys are stupid" features elegant floral paper with "Boys are Stupid" in fancy script attached with little black brads. This one is sure to bring a smile to her face!

"You have to kiss a lot of frogs..." We all know how the saying goes... so after your friend has broken up with the latest frog, this card is sure to cheer her up! It is adorned with white and lilac ribbons and a cute little plastic frog!

"broken heart" This is a simple design featuring a paper heart torn in half and repaired with a real band-aid. It is backed with deep purple paper and adorned with antiqued brads. Perfect for males or females... anyone who has suffered a broken heart.
