****WELCOME FRIENDS****
I am artist of texture and color. I enjoy working with textiles, mixed media and the graphic arts. I am an avid cottage gardener with a love for pass along plants and big fluffy pink peonies and pink roses. Many of my tangible creations reflect my love of the garden and all its wonderful colors. I have been selling my creations online since 2002 beginning as a hobby. After 10 years I quit the day job to pursue my art as a full time passion.

Apple pie by Susan Rios


Every so often I will be adding another of my favorite artists work--SUSAN RIOS--Her cottage style and detail is amazing!

I have just added some new items in BOTH my etsy stores---BLOG BANNERS in Cottage Garden Banners and some really sweet totes in Marionberry Cottage. As I have stated before I am really limiting my ebay listings because the fees are just outrageous!

Is it June already?



my fave artist--Susan Rios--

Well yes, and I still have not completely updated this blog--but be patient with me! I did get the new banner made, but the template sucks eggs-- I have switched into my "cottage gardening" mode and have been planting flowers like crazy since we have had such a late spring...but standby--I will catch up!
