A Fresh Sprinkle of Whimsy

Happy Art has grown again. I’ve just added nine new whimsical illustrations, with two more in progress that will be added to the website as soon as they’re complete. As well as creating in the studio, I’m also preparing for a full season of shows—setting up a new exhibition with a fellow artist in Enderby for the month of May, followed by shows in both Armstrong and Fintry Manor in June.

Here are a few of the new illustrations that are ready to be made into cards and prints.

Enjoy a beautiful setting, strawberry cream tea, soup and a bun, with live music and artist demos.

Charleston Charmers: A Miniature Symphony of Whimsical Homes

Once upon a sun-kissed morning, in the heart of a cobblestone street, there stood a row of houses so petite they could fit inside a daydream. These were no ordinary dwellings: they were Charleston Charmers, where magic and practicality waltzed hand in hand. And oh, the colors! Mint green, coral pink, and buttercup yellow - like a box of pastel crayons spilled across the sky. Look for all ten in this series of "charmers". A trip to South Carolina this year filled my head with inspiration to recreate some tiny homes I drew years ago. Friends who purchased these tiny homes said they reminded them of the many colorful homes of Charleston.

Check out the greeting card section on the site to see the rest of the "charmers". Such a fun project for me to create
