New paintings and a better less complicated idea.
Hello everyone,
I have decided that I am going to just add my new art here, instead to my website, because they are going to be deactivating bravehost accounts and switching to a new bravesites and changing their rules and stuff...So I am just going to put my new stuff here and not worry about the HTML of things.
So here are a few new paintings.

Well I know you are probably wondering why my clock painting, doesn't have any hands! I did that on purpose, I don't feel it needs any hands as it is a different kind of fantasy time travelers clock lol...I like my art to have a fantasy feel to it, and so this clock does not have hands because it is non-winding, and it's time is infinite. I know it looks amateurish, but I don't care, and I just like to share my art with the world :-)

This is my gears painting, I sketched it out before the clock, but decided to paint the clock first, as to bring in the gears of the clock, so they kind of go together as a pair :-) I may add more to it as I do not feel it is quite finished yet and needs some more shadow and color added.

And this is my new landscape painting, I hadn't painting one in a long time and I have been reading a great landscape painting book which has a lot of good things in there. I'll add a link to it for those who would like to try landscape painting and see that it isn't as hard as it looks :-)
I'd also like to add that some of this painting is not visible, because I scanned it and it's a little too big for the scanner, I will try to take a photo of it later and see if it comes out better and post it here in place of this one.

So here is the link for the book I used for a little bit of a guide, there is just so much in it that you'd have to see for yourself, it shows you different techniques and how to use more than one canvas to make a nice big painting for your wall! (2, 3, or even 4 canvases put together as 1) I hope you all enjoy my art because I enjoy creating it and sharing it!
Have a wonderful week and blessings to all

Here is a big news update!
I will be taking a whole lot of my time this week end trying my best to throw together an artist type thing. Where my website is right now, they are updating and upgrading there rules and services and with all the content I do have on mine I will be having to move it else where.
I'm not happy about this move because I know it will be a lot of time and work. It's worth it, but It is going to be hard to configure and figure all the differences and changes I will be having to make.
So if you come here for a visit now and than, now you know that I will be busy at work with my art website content being moved. Sadly during times like this other things get neglected...I did however have a feeling (as stated in an earlier post) that this was going to be happening!
Thanks for your patience and I hope your weekend at least will be fun filled and wonderful!
AnnJ
PS- The good news and positive to this change? I get to start off fresh somewhere new and use a different look and feel. It is going to be hard and tiring, but also fun and exciting to see what I can come up with.

An update!
Hello everyone,
I would like to say sorry for not being around, and here is an update! I have been very busy, with, no school for me, and time with my child. As well as keep busy with other appointments and trying to find a job.
Summer is coming and I am planning on doing a lot of outdoor activities. I have some new paintings that need scanning as well as a few drawings I have finished as well. But due to me being busy with everything else, sadly my website and blog has been neglected. Sorry about that!
Social outside of my home is becoming a new venture so I may be a while before posting post to post.
I thank you for the patience!

Just a few words...
Hello everyone,
I just wanted to let you know I have been having a busy few days, updating other blogs, trying to find a job and being a mom, so with everything keeping me away. I thought I'd let you all know that, that is where I have been!
I plan to add more stuff next week!
Have a great week!

Just a little post before I go to bed! I have been BLOGGED!
I got blogged about the other day! Check it out!
This is a great blogger, I have been sharing some chats with. They have a wide range of things to read about and some very funny posts too. They are very intelligent, and well worth the visit.
I hadn't been doing much on blogger lately, so I hadn't noticed it until now!
Sorry I hadn't checked it sooner, perhaps I was a bit self absorbed at the time?
I'm so shocked I don't really know how to express my gratitude, I feel honored to be mentioned on someone's blog! I really don't know what to say...
Thanks so much,
I am happy to be considered as a friend.
AnnJ
PS - Hope all is well with you, You have been in my thoughts!

New creations on the go!
Hello again everyone!
Well I just wanted to log in and post a bit of an update.
I have been creating a little but, I finished a small and yet fast painting (which I will post later when other creations are done!), I have been drawing and going a long with the book I mentioned in an earlier post, found HERE. I am really enjoying the book, I have also been reading a Renaissance book of old famous art. It's called The art of the Renaissance Nathaniel Harris, I was looking for a link so I could post it, but I couldn't find one! It's only 80pages long but I really am liking it! Plus it has some of my faves in it! :-)
Well have a great day everyone and I hope your weekend is going great too!
I want to thank you all again for coming to view my updates on my art blog and I also would like to thank those who have viewed my art on my website!
AnnJ
PS-Be Well!
