Some Tools and Sillies

I noticed mixed amongst some of my tools, work, and mediums a little finger puppet, Bill. How did Bill get in next to my pearlescent ink? I thought it a good blend of serious and silly which is really what creating is about to me.

I get as inspired from these sample boards as I do from the paints themselves.

These are those plastic flowers by Umbra. I just had to gold leaf them. It took quite a while, but I think it was worth it.

Oh Boy... I really have to tackle this soon.

If it stands still long enough, I WILL gold leaf it. This started out as a black on white painting. I just couldn't leave it alone. Oh well .... this is how it ended up.
