Time Well Spent -By Lois

This is part of a group of ocean themed pieces that will be in my booth at Sweet Grace Market in downtown Mebane. This is not an event but actually a wonderful place loaded with all kinds of booths with all kinds of amazing things. Mine will be one of them!

Well… It looks like I’ve secured a booth at Sweet Grace Market in Mebane. I am furiously painting inventory to sell. This is one of the pieces. I had a black and white Dutch rabbit like this one as a class pet for MANY years. In fact, Wilma lived to be eight years old and became the subject of many classroom stories. I hope to have my booth ready within the next two weeks. Stay tuned for more items!

I was asked to paint this piece for a friend to give her husband for his birthday. Bailey is his pride and joy! We’ve been planning this surprise since before Christmas! That’s a long time to keep a secret!

“April Showers Bring May Flowers” features a fat little chipmunk weathering the rain under a bright colored umbrella. I added lilies of the valley as they are May’s flower. Please zoom in to check out the bottom teeth! I love this little fellow. It’s also my first time putting a chipmunk in my artwork. If you are interested in purchasing this piece, remember that I am STILL unable to see anything on Facebook. You will need to text me or email me at [email protected]. $40

I do love a happy bunny! This cutie is all set for spring! My flower child is painted on a six inch heart shaped slate. It fits perfectly in a small easel that makes display easy and perfect as part of an Easter display or one that you could use year round.
$40
PS….Please remember that even though this is posting on my page, I am unable to see your comments. If you wish to purchase, please text me or email me at [email protected]. Thanks to everyone for your continued support and patience. Much love!

This little mouse fairy is busy planting her special seeds as she sprinkles her magic around the garden. I love that soon it will be time to create some garden magic of my own….and I’ll be on the lookout for a mouse fairy like this one. This slate measures 6”x 8 1/2”.
$40

Isn’t this a sweet sentiment? I am continuing with my mice and other creatures and when I saw this quote, I thought of a little mouse couple walking in the garden. This piece is painted on 8 1/2” x 6” slate. $40
PS… It is my understanding through friends, that somehow these posts are showing up on my FB page but I can’t see my page at all. If you want this piece, text me if you have my number or email me at [email protected]. I am still trying to work through this suspension that was not of my doing. It is so distressing and disheartening.

“Just Ducky”… as in “everything is just ducky!” Can I tell you how much fun I had painting this? I knew I wanted the vintage hat but felt she needed a matching beaded clutch. The polka dot scarf completes an ensemble that is something to quack about. This piece is painted on a piece of roofing slate from a 100 year old house in Roanoke, VA. It measures 7 1/2” x 14”. This piece is available for sale.

Sadly, my “Time Well Spent by Lois” fb page was hijacked by a bogus Instagram account and all of my FB accounts were suspended as a result. I’m trying to appeal this but I can’t login to any of my fb accounts to follow the appeals process. It has made me absolutely heartsick as I don’t see much hope in fixing the problem. So for now….I’m here! Please continue to follow me and send good vibes. Thanks!

No new artwork to post tonight but I hope to have some new pieces to share before the weekend is over. I prepped five pieces, sketched and planned ideas, and actually put down the base coats on several pieces today. Some more cute little mice are making appearances, maybe a rabbit, and another possum doing something fun. At some point, I've got ideas involving a chipmunk, a donkey, an elephant....Yes! An elephant and a pig....I'm not telling what I'm doing because I want it to be a surprise. 😉 Plus, sometimes I change things up at the last minute! I am having so much fun and I am so appreciative of all of your comments and your response to my ideas. Stay tuned! Coming Soon! Have an amazing weekend!
