Some New Photos

Just documenting some of the pretty sights in the neighborhood.

Logo Designs

So I'm back on the Logo Design wagon! Tammy Becker (www.TammyBecker.com) is a wonderful designer in the flower/design/decor world and she has asked for a new look, with the potential for moving away from her current color scheme (vermillion with white accents). I'm pushing for the following two designs.

Based on the Allium flower, which actually has no leaves like this (but the green does so well!) but who cares! Midnight purple (also called a "Mature Eggplant") with a pop of lime-ish green. I love it.
Design #2, my favorite. What's really great is that the texture of the flowers is going to REALLY work wonders with business cards, backgrounds on the website, and general print designs.

Back to Textiles

hurrah for the return of the textile designs! These are several of the floral prints that I've been meaning to upload for quite some time. Also playing with Thistle "stars"...This is a Pincushion Protea flower. Its solid image is also much like a clover.

This is an Art Nouveau-esque print of Gloriosa Lillies.

Deck Garden

This is Shay. He is my cat. Shay likes boxes.
This is Bronwyn. She is my friend. She likes pizzas.

I've been growing a lot of plants in containers out on the porch, some of which have been more satisfying than others. Also some generally overdue fun things...

MINIATURE SNAPDRAGONS!!! I grew these little guys from seeds, nothing more satisfying...
These are huge Cayenne Peppers, what do I cook with them? No clue. They sure are fun though!
Sweet peas, which are kind of hilarious because the plants themselves are pretty flimsy, so the peas REALLY weigh the little guys down...
The beginnings of my cucumbers, which are currently now the size and shape of small water balloons...

More actual pieces of art to come (although now I want to make cucumber art). Oh, and check out www.EloquentInk.com because I may be designing some plates!!!
