Recently, I had a few people over to the house to drink a little wine, eat a little cheese and give a little feedback on some new projects/artwork I am doing as well as some old works. I didn't take any pictures until everyone had gone, but here's a taste of what was there, minus the booze and brie.
I painted this pair for myself...not sure if I'm completely done with them, but I've had fun wearing them around and getting asked where to find a pair:) 
Tori's special birthday outfit, hand-painted with the mice she screams wildly about:)
Simple Irish-luck-infused painted jeans. Shamrocks + Green + Glitter= No Pinches.
...adding to the "Pink Floor Saga", bugs and flowers and rats and bunnies and snails weren't enough. About 15 or so more mice were added by request. Here they are:
My mom gave me this jean jacket to spruce up for her. She loves hummingbirds and wears lots of these cheerful fresh colors. I used various textile paints, slickies and a bit of glitter on the chest lapels and back. I gave it a little extra by giving the cuff, lapel and pockets a painted "thread" trim. I'll edit this post when I get a picture of my cutie mom modeling, because it fits her so well!
I was commisioned by my ever-thoughtful uncle to paint these jeans special for my Aunt Anne. She loves orchids (also my favorite flower breed;) and luscious bright colors. She wore them this New Year's eve and looked adorable! My aunt is also an artist...she makes gorgeous art quilts that she should show-off more often!
Just a few random samples for perusal.... Lusterstone, Venetian plasters and stuccolux are pricier products so I don't get to play around with them as often as I like. Below are also examples of some hand-troweled finishes, "color-washes" and lime paint applications.
