Finding Inspiration . . . . .
Here . . . .
There . . . .
I picked up the white wicker recently at a yard sale wile driving out of town for a "mini" road trip and plan to use it in my guestroom. I am re-purposing my guest room using everything I already have by using Kitty Bartholomew's philosophy . . ."it's not what you don't have . . .it's what you do with what you do have".
The white wicker chair with blue stripe and floral cushions and French doors inspired my guest room painting since the room has some blue stripe bedding . . . I added the sunflowers for a pop of color . . .a basket of red roses to pick up the red accents in the room and a bright blue rug to pull everything together. My home is decorated in what I call . . "re-purposed seaside cottage garden style " . . so . . I decided to paint the ocean in the background to tie in the seaside cottage garden theme.
I am off to hang the painting and finish re-purposing and will show you the finished room next time. Thank you for visiting. I love hearing from you and sincerely appreciate that you have taken time to leave me a comment and follow my blog. If you have any questions or would like to see me paint something special, please leave me a comment or send me an e-mail.
Have a lovely week. Blessing, Erin

I love the look of wicker furniture, and flowers. Your painting is so pretty. I just bought a painting of a porch with wicker furniture, flowers and a picket fence. To think that you can sit down and paint your own picture. Such talent....Sharon K

Hi Erin,
I've been following your blog for a while and am continually amazed at your gorgeous photography and paintings! I just added you to my little miniature blog roll too. I'm working on a beach house dollhouse.
I'm finding lots of inspiration here and wanted to share you with my mini-friends!
Blessings, Kathi
Hi Erin,
I know I say this every time I stop by, but I LOVE Bentley....
