Shenandoah Valley View

February 22, 2010 by kellywalkerstudios

Shenandoah Valley View is an oil on canvas panel measuring 12″x24″.  This is a piece I started several years ago and while we’ve been weathered in the past few weeks I’ve taken the time to dig out a few old starts and get them finished. 

This one is now framed and on display at Delilah’s.  Come by and see it.

This is too cute…..

February 18, 2010 by kellywalkerstudios

I’m still crocheting like crazy and loving it.  I just made these two cute little cocoon sets for newborns.  They are available for purchase at Delilah’s for by contacting me. 

I love the pea green one with the little stem hat.  I wish I knew someone with a little baby that I could use as a model.  Truman refused.  🙂

Abstract Dreams

February 16, 2010 by kellywalkerstudios

 

 Abstract Dreams I & II are acrylic on Gallery Wrap 1 1/2″ canvas measuring 12″x12″ each.  They are SOLD.

I enjoy abstract work and combining colors to see what works together well.  It is a lesson in trial and error. 

I think these combinations turned out great!

Back to Art – Rockefeller Plaza

February 15, 2010 by kellywalkerstudios

After a week of posting crochet on my blog I’m back to art.  But first I want to say thanks to everyone who responded so positively to the crochet.  I was shocked!  And many thanks to those of you who purchased items.  With your encouragement I have taken some things to Delilah’s so if you are interested in hats, slippers, or bags, stop into the shop and take a look. 

Now back to art.  Rockefeller Plaza is an acrylic on canvas measuring 24″x18″.  This painting began as a lesson for a private student who was interested in doing a “representational abstract” of this view.  We had fun working on it.  As you can see it was a Christmas view.  It is SOLD!

Slippers

February 12, 2010 by kellywalkerstudios

Today is the last day for the crazy crochet week….something a little different for this blog.

Today I am posting photos of slippers that I made the last couple of days.  The snow is giving me plenty of time to watch tv and crochet.

I love these slippers.  I made two different patterns and am trying a third.   The internet makes it so easy to find great patterns.  That is really different from when I first learned to crochet and you had to buy a book with loads of patterns in it just to get the one you wanted.

I hope you have enjoyed the week of crochet.  Next week it’s back to art!

Hats, Hats, and More Hats

February 11, 2010 by kellywalkerstudios

Have I mentioned how much fun I am having crocheting.  I made these two little baby hats with ears.  I think they are funny and I don’t know what I am going to do with them.  But they are cute, aren’t they?

I also made some hats for big people.  I love these two hats with brims.  They are really cute on and so comfortable.  And I love how they are so easy to bend and roll.  They would be great for traveling.  The light colored one SOLD!  Not to worry though, I’ve already made another one.  🙂

I know I will make more of these because I love how they look and they are fun to make.  One day when I comb my hair and have on make-up, I’ll take a photo with one of these on so that you can see how they look.  But with this weather, I haven’t had make-up on in days.  😉

Still stuck inside…more snow

February 10, 2010 by kellywalkerstudios

It is snowing again.  We got another several inches last night.  Just what we needed seeing how the roads haven’t been cleared from the first snow. 😦

I’m still crocheting.  Here is a scarf/wrap and hat that I made out of some beautiful green yarn.  And I am working on a couple of other hats.  I’m having such fun with this.

For those of you who emailed me, no I haven’t stopped painting.  I’m still painting but with all the time inside I have to do other things as well.  So this week I just thought I’d change it up a little.  Thanks for asking and for the encouragement.  I really appreciate it.

Stay warm and safe.

More snow and more crochet…

February 9, 2010 by kellywalkerstudios

Here is a better view of the variegated yarn basket that was in the background of the photo yesterday.  This is the second one I made from that same pattern.

And I just kept crocheting.  There is something addictive about it.  I don’t really understand it but I can’t stop.

I made hats!  I’ve never made hats before.  But I found this terrific website where they have gobs of beautiful patterns that you can download and I found so many great things to try.

If you like crochet check out www.crochetpatternscentral.com and from there you find many links to other places where there are great patterns available including the website for the yarn makers. 

I did paint a little yesterday too but this is such a refreshing change that I am planning more for today and with the call for another 8-12 inches of snow tonight I just hope I have enough yarn laid in the carry me through to the thaw.  🙂
