... I painted lots of peepers!
I have quite the urge to start customizing Blythe dolls, but, before making the leap to ripping apart a $100 doll, I've decided to start learning the skills piecemeal. When I was learning to draw and paint in art school, one of my favorite activities was drawing eyes. (Well, that and drawing hands in the "Live Long & Prosper" gesture or a gesture of my own invention, "Die Short & Fail.")
When I realized that creating eyechips for Blythe meant I could spend hours focused only on painting irises, I knew I had to give it a shot. Diagnosis: I like it even more than I thought I would! So much so, in fact, that I didn't study a lick for the final I had on Monday (which, coincidentally, was my very last final, meaning I'm now done with school). I'm now out of blank eyechips and can hardly wait to order more.
I'd love to encourage more people to take up this hobby, and so, as there isn't much information on this process available, I'll try to create a tutorial in the future.
The next piece of the customization puzzle I plan to attack is rerooting Blythe scalps with natural fibers. Since I love to dye wool to spin yarn, I have a feeling I'm going to enjoy dying Blythe hair just as much. I'm off to the Black Sheep Gathering next Sunday to search out local mohair and alpaca vendors. Wish me luck, though. I'm a bit nervous I'll return to Portland with a cria.
One surprising thing that one will find on close inspection is that most locomotives and coaches in India are handpainted. This of course allows for lots of creativity like these digital numbers on the side of this BRC WAG-5P.
These look a bit pinker in person, but didn't turn out exactly how I expected. Let me know how you like them as I can do them again.
Around Easter ... I should just say springtime, I get the bug to paint boxes for some reason ... actually I use to paint an egg to match the box & put it inside to give as a gift to family & friends ... don't know where the egg that goes with this one is? ... Was painted a few yrs. back ... When I get into a creative mood, I sometimes paint for weeks at a time, put them aside & forget about them! :(

From the archive: Spotted this handpainted tiled street sign when I got off the passenger ferry from Sorrento on a day trip to the island - Capri, Italy
O.K. ... Here is the question? ... this was all handpainted, just drawn onto the box freehand & then painted, these are my own original designs... So does this classify as a handpainted Zentangle? :) ........... THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS ... AND NOW I WILL TELL YOU THAT I PAINTED THESE PIECES TWENTY YRS. AGO! ... ANYWAY, THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME OUT OF YOUR DAY TO LOOK & COMMENT ON MY PIECES, IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME TO KNOW THAT YOU ENJOY LOOKING AT MY WORK AS MUCH AS I LOVE LOOKING AT YOURS! :)

I worked on this glass art piece yesterday for several hours. It is 8 inches in length and width. This is the first portrait glass art I've done. I thought a small size would provide more flexibility for clients with out a lot of room. This piece can be displayed on the wall or used as a decorative dish. It is also very pretty against a window because the paint is transparent and the light shines through to make the colors even more vivid.
