Not Only Do I Make Projects with Paper, I Also Paint With Acrylics!


Yes I paint! When my hubby Dave passed away from cancer a little over two years ago, I needed to keep my head busy so I wouldn’t do so much thinking. I used to paint maybe 30 years ago, so I decided to take it up again. The winters in Maine are sometimes long when we get lots of snow and lots of below zero temperatures. For those that don’t have hobbies, it must be difficult. I can’t imagine.
I thought it would be neat to share a few of my paintings with you from the past two years today and I’ll sneak more posts sporadically here and there.


I’ve had a few people tell me I should start teaching “paint & sip” style parties and I’m actually hosting one the first week of October. I’ll show you a little later what we will be painting. I am also getting ready for a craft fair at the end of this month so as you can see, I’m keeping super-busy!
Thanks for letting me show you a little bit of my art today!

How beautiful Debbie! I really like the sunflowers and fall leaves ones. I enjoy crochet in addition to stamping. Thanks for sharing! Can’t wait to see more.

What a wonderful hobby and it is very relaxing. I have done some watercolors years ago and I gave thought of doing it again. Your creations are beautiful!
You should pick up watercoloring again Aileen. It’s a great way to pass the winter months especially!
That’s great wished I lived by you, I’d be your winter friend.. ❤️
That would be so neat!
You are so talented, Debbie. I love the Sunflowers, closely followed by the Fall Foliage, the most. I wish I lived close enough to take your classes. Thank you for sharing your talent with so many.
Lisa
