Artist Showcase: Kim Nauman

I don't have any new completed pieces to show right now so instead I thought I would share some pictures of one of my favourite artists, Kim Naumann.  Ok, she is my sister, but even if she wasn't, she'd still be one of my favourites.  It was really tough choosing which pictures of hers to show you.  She has so many that I like but if I showed them all to you, it would go on for pages and pages, so instead here are just a few of my favourites...








For more beautiful artwork by Kim Naumann, you can read her blog Sometimes Here Sometimes There or at Curiouser and Curiouser Designs.

Liam With His Owl

My sister sent me this picture of my nephew, Liam, with his new owl that I made him.  I just love this picture, he looks so happy in it.

Two Owls for my Niece and Nephew


Months ago I told my sister I would make her two owls, one for my nephew Liam and one for my niece Elsa.  Well it took me much longer to finish them then I had originally thought (as it usually does) but they're finally finished.  Liam's favourite colour is red so I painted his bright alizarin crimson.  Elsa is only 14 months old so she's not quite old enough to have a favourite colour so I decided to paint her owl a lovely light pink.  I'll be sending them off to my sister on Prince Edward Island soon.  I sure hope they like them.
