Mallory


peaceful little lambs

these precious paintings are for a baby boy's nursery; his bedding is a beautiful light blue/tan toile. The verses are Psalm 4:8, Isaiah 40:1 and Psalm 127:3. I really enjoyed this project.

Ms. Kay

Ms. Kay is my wonderful Bible study teacher. We studied the book of Philippians a few months ago, so as a thank you to her I painted a verse from Philippians 4. As I painted it and sketched out how it would look, I wrote the verse over and over (Phil. 4:8) and because of that I have this wonderful scripture memorized. God teaches me even through my own paintings, isn't that cool?

teachers' gifts







The girls' last day of preschool was on Thursday; we had been to the beach and had just gotten back on Tuesday. Between laundry and groceries and trying to get back to normal I had forgotten all about teachers' gifts. I dismissed it and thought, "well, its no big deal", but then I felt really bad. Their teachers have been wonderful this year and I needed to do something to thank them...and QUICK! So, I went home on Thursday morning and painted 3 paintings (plus three more that I had to do for an order that was due on Friday).

Mortgage free!!!

I'm so jealous. The lady I did this for was getting this done for her husband to tell him they had paid off their house! Oh the bliss! I can't even imagine since we move every 2 years or so (which means we're due for a move actually) and we re-finance every time we move. What a great thing to celebrate though! Way to go!

For baby Lily

My friend, Amanda, had a baby a few weeks ago...baby Lily...she was 5, maybe 6 weeks early! Pray for sweet Lily! Even though she was a pretty healthy size, she is still not out of the woods. I pray that she can come home soon and see her pretty Noah's ark nursery!


Colossians 3:12

I took the picture before I put the teacher's names on these. I was so eager to get them mailed out on time and I forgot to take a picture of them finished.


happy mother's day!

I did two of the next pic. They're a little bit different. I really can't do the same exact thing twice. just goes to show that every single painting is an original.





I used to love to do paintings for my mom for mother's day! I haven't done one in a while for her b/c quite frankly, she doesn't really have any more wall space...neither does my mother-in-law. Here are just a couple that I have done recently and I'm still working on a few more that I will post just as soon as I get them done...hopefully, sometimes it takes me a while to get to the "posting" part.
