Hello friends. It’s already Wednesday as the days seem to play in fast forward despite my attempts to slow down time. Minutes turn into hours, hours into days, days into months and suddenly our friends in the U.S. are prepping for Thanksgiving and we’ll soon be celebrating Christmas.
In our industry, we unfortunately seem to live in the future as we’re always planning ahead and trying to keep up. It’s fun and exciting, but at the same time, it can be exhausting and dangerous if you don’t make a conscious effort to slow down and enjoy the beauty of the present.
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen these images already. Little sneak peeks into some of the prints I’ll be adding to my shop in the days ahead. There is something so beautiful about Christmas that inspires me so. Just as I think I’m not ready to embrace the season too early, inspiration hits and I find myself wrapped in its magic.
But alas, it’s still fall and as I mentioned before, it’s important to live in the current moment. I have put together a more fall appropriate watercolor tutorial for you. I enjoy sharing these, but they do take time a lot of time to put together, so I truly hope you enjoy them.
Please head on over to eHow to see the step by step tutorial. If you ever have any requests for watercolor tutorials, please let me know.
As usual, thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you have a beautiful day.
much love,
So adorable!!

The little red car is cute. Have a good day, stay dry!
They’re both just darling. I love your creativity.
Wow, 200 different kinds of owls! I’m not sure I’ve seen one. I mean, I’ve seen one in TV, movies and cartoons and in Children’s books but not in my neighborhood. You would think with all those different kinds I’d have seen one. I like yours. It looks so lifelike. I also love your car with packages. Some of our stores have been in the holiday spirit since the end of Sept. and I think that’s way to early. When I worked in retail in the 80’s and 90’s I said someday they would leave all the Christmas stuff up year round. It sure seems like it’s getting there.
Hi Lucy!
I opened up my email to discover this lovely post this morning. I’m crushing on your Christmas painting AND that striped ribbon. Beautiful. But I really wanted to tell you that I’m loving your new logo! It’s classic and beautiful, nicely done 🙂 Have a great day

Thank you so very much for your watercolor tutorials! The owl is precious, and your artistic talent is truly awesome!
You are so talented.. I am going to Society 6 right now and stock up..
I love your adorable watercolors. I recently (past 5 years or so) started painting with watercolors and I just love how the colors flow. Love you owl!
My mother collected anything “owl” in the 60’s and 70’s and 80’s. She had quite the collection of paintings, figurines, etc. I kept many of them for myself, and gave many away to family members as a way to remember her and her love for this beautiful bird.
I especially love putting the owls out around this time of year…owls and October just seem to go together for me.
Owls do have a real romance about them, don’t they Lucy?
I’m off to eHow to check out your wonderful Tute.
I’ll share it on my FB page as a lot of my peeps will be inspired 🙂
