Romantic Bliss Continues ...

Hello My Friends! It is seems like Valentine's Day is just around the corner and today I have a special treat for you. These new pieces are from my Romantic Bliss collection for this special occasion and may be just what you like. If you interested in seeing more, please go to my shop

I must be feeling sentimental lately ... all my new art pieces are filled with nostalgia and a sense of romance. I posted this new piece last weekend and it has already sold. This Parisian inspired painting found a landing place in the beautiful state of Kentucky. It 's so nice when my work finds a permanent home. They are better out in the world, hopefully brightening peoples spaces and bringing back some happy memories! Safe travel dear "French Kiss"!

If my work inspired you to ask about a custom piece - This is how the custom portrait process works: You send me an email from here or convo from etsy shop telling me as much about your idea as you want to - every little bits help: personality, stories, colors, all that. You can send photographs if you like. Depending on my current schedule, it can take up to 2-3 weeks after you buy the listing for me to complete the piece and mail it to you. You will receive one 10 x 14 or 16 x 20 sized original watercolor. The piece will be signed by me unless you request otherwise.

Check the images above to see if you like my style. As you can see, I work in a loose, semi-abstract style, so you will NOT have an exact reproduction of your photograph, but rather a loose interpretation based on what you told me about your subject and the images you sent me.

As always my hugs and sweet wishes to all! What is your favorite Valentine's Day memories?

OCTOBER What To Wear in FLORIDA

I made this for my friend who lives in NYC. We laughed about the winter season and the cold, dreary weather that will soon be afflicting her there in NYC. We also talked about making plans for her to visit me here in Florida. Fall & Winter is the best time to come and enjoy Florida! The weather and opportunity to be outside without the oppressive humidity is just perfect! She asked me what to bring - I just could not resist to make this welcoming poster for her :)

TRAVEL is about gorgeous feeling...

I found a couple of interesting quotes referencing traveling/vacations while posting my blog this week.

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”

Terry Pratchett,
A Hat Full of Sky

I liked this one:

"When one is traveling, everything looks brighter and lovelier. That does not mean it is brighter and lovelier; it just means that sweet kindly home suffers in comparison to tarted up foreign places with all their jewels on."

- Catherynne Valente

As much as I love traveling, there’s nothing like being home. I’ve missed my bed, my art studio, and full access to all my beauty products and wardrobe :)

I’ve even missed my yoga routine!

What are you missed most about when you away from home? Comment below and let me know!

Discover Your London Style

I think London has so many eclectic trends...so it is hard to really pick the most recognizable. I know it sounds weird to name a few like red phone booths, best taxi cabs (seriously London's cab drivers are the best), or Big Ben. But it took me awhile to really fill the spirit and sense of the very touristy bustling city. I had some memorable inspirations I would like to share with you here.

You can buy anything at London's famous department store, from a teddy bear to a pair of diamond-encrusted high heels. Which I'm prefer :) I love mixture and eclectic fashion style of London.

I had the pleasure of walked many of the London bridges this summer. From the moment I stepped on Tower bridge, I knew I would capture it in a painting.

Enjoy the London inspired collection at my shop: LanasArt on Etsy posted this week!

Thoughts for Today

I love to paint.
It is vital to my life.
I paint wherever I am.
I paint from a feminine, fresh, youthful and very passionate perspective.
Fashion is my muse. The colors of summer are my delicious palette.
The subject in my personal work is predominantly a reflection of my thoughts at the moment.
I'm fascinated by faces, the inner beauty of the woman and by the beauty that surrounds me. This is how I choose to create my life and my art.
