Good Friends and Lots of Fun

A couple weeks ago Sara, Dana, Lindi and I went to Ladies Night at the Clay Cafe in Sewickley. They provide the food, you provide the drinks, you sit, paint, laugh and enjoy being surrounded by tons of creative women who just want to have fun.. It costs a small fortune, but it’s so worth it! And now I’ve finally gotten around to posting the pics from our girls night out.

All of us pre-pottery-painting

Lindi and her sweet little square pot

Sara’s ridiculously expensive, but oh-so-adorable olive dish

Dana and her so cute and adorable valentine’s candy dish

My starfish soup bowls which cost me more than a small fortune, but they are the perfect bowls for all the soup I make! Who doesn’t need a great soup bowl??

Much Anticipated!! (well, for me at least)

For those of you that have been reading my blog since it’s conception, you know I’ve been mentioning for the past 2 years, I guess, that my goal was to get an Etsy shop up and running.

WELL, I FINALLY DID IT!

Right now, I only have a few prints listed, but it’s enough! Please go check it out and spread the word! I’m really hoping this takes off. Suggestions are welcome, too! I want positive/negative feedback so I know what to do to make things better. Any illustration suggestions are welcome as well. I’m always looking for new, fresh ideas.

Shop ShannyLee Now!

The Sketchbook Project

So I finally finished my little itty bitty sketchbook for The Sketchbook Project with the Art House Coop. Let me just say firstly that this is in no way my finest artistic creation. I actually wrote more than I drew in this little book. It just seemed right. I’ve been going through so much lately that I had no idea how to convey all these crazy emotions through sketches that are 3in x 5in. So I wrote and doodled around the writing. I don’t expect to win any awards or score any major fans from this little project, but it was an outlet for me… a very refreshing outlet… to voice some of the feelings I’ve been fighting over the past few months. Maybe the next time I’ll have more time and more focus, but for now… here are my little doodles.
