Here's a fun one I made for Spoonflower's delft tiling surface pattern design challenge. Of course I had to theme my entry around chickens, because... I mean, come on... Chickens! #ChickenTrender

Photo from earlier this year of some crocuses springing up.

Hope everyone's well today!

I had a bad leak in the water pipes under my home—got most of it patched up today, thankfully, but all the pipes will need replacing. Phew... It's going to cost.

Pear blossoms!

I've finally added a channel to my gallery community for photos, by the way... LOL My photos are just point & shoot, nothing fancy, but it will help me keep track of what I've shared with you all.

The Joltidays are here again!

Each Monday in December, you'll get a new Joltidays quest!

Plus, check out new seasonal items in the shop!

Here's a photo from one of my recent walks! I think daffodils have to be one of the most welcome sights after a long cold winter.

It's chilly again today, but I have the wood stove fired up and cranking out the heat! Hope everyone's doing well.

There's still time to post YOUR nail art and enter Opera GX's #GXNailArt contest! (Here's some of what your fellow Jolters have posted.)

I... Uh... I definitely knew how to use the jackhammer...

Here's a surface pattern design I painted that was inspired by an embroidered jacket. You can probably see I used an arch motif as a guide for this one. I think it looks really cool for upholstery (chair mockup courtesy of Spoonflower).

Here's another one of my recent surface patterns, inspired by ogee prints, 1920s décor, and early Art Nouveau design. I actually pulled the palettes from an interior design book published in the late 1920s—very fun!
