This is outside my usual blog topics, but since there is such an interest in digital and crypto-currencies amongst my steemit peers, I felt I should share. This is a new currency and payment network built

I haven't had much time to post lately. I will try to do a longer post soon. I have so many new adventures and pieces of art to share with you! I also have a brand new etsy shop for original art and prints!

I've been away for awhile, but I have so much to share with you now that I'm back! Posts will come as I have time. Life is extra busy right now! We finally moved to a bigger apartment in Athens, and when

For today's 100 day project painting I went completely out out of my comfort zone. We're on Kea Island in Greece for the weekend, and my husband took this beautiful photo of the wisteria hanging over one

For day 3 of my 100 days I decided to try my hand at a tree against a galaxy background. First I drew the tree and covered it with masking fluid. Then I painted over the whole thing with blues, greens,

For my 2nd day of #the100dayproject I decided to do a maple branch in autumn. My step father studies trees for a living and his family has a small maple farm, so I thought it would make a nice gift when

#the100dayproject is an art challenge currently happening on Instagram, but I thought I'd bring it over to Steemit. How does it work? Pick one form of art that you'd like to improve at and do one small

One of my favorite things about living in Greece is being constantly surrounded by beautiful olive trees. Last year during olive picking season we collected olives from the trees in our neighborhood and

I wanted to do a quick art share with you this Monday. I’ve been super busy working on the launch of both my RedBubble shop and the Red Finch Design brand, so I haven’t been left with a lot of time for

I've spent some time this week working on some new stone and wire jewelry for my Etsy shop this week and have also been trying out my macro lens for the photographs. I still need to work on finding some

Now that spring is officially here and the weather is starting to thaw, I find myself dreaming of sun, sandy beaches, and island adventures. Lucky for me, in addition to the breathtaking beauty of the

I've been away from Steemit for a bit while catching up on some things in life away from the computer, but I'm back now with some artwork to share and I promise to post some new photography, travel, and
