Paint Party Friday and Sunday Sketches! I'm back!

Hi guys, well after a wonderful trip to New Zealand I'm back and have been painting all week with a new kind of energy.

We had a wonderful time, skiing, running, walking, sightseeing it was a real out doorsy holiday and it all went by in a blur. I shall share a couple of pics at the end of this post. First up though I wanted to share my recent paintings with you!
This dancing vampy angel is still a work in progress but I started her before I went away. Will try to finish her this week. She's painted in oils on water colour paper!

Next up is Leila, I painted her in oils on water colour paper and managed to finish her just before we went away! I'm loving playing around with the different colour schemes etc!
This next one I called 'Rose' she is on a canvas and I shall be adding her to my shop very soon!

My snow girl 'Neve' was inspired by my trip to New Zealand as was this next piece (a mini landscape).

Last but not least is my piece I finished yesterday in acrylics 'Jade' my masquerade girl :0)

 I feel very inspired lately and am having so much fun with my painting.

I'm having a giveaway on my facebook page so be sure to head over there and enter plus I'm having a Winter sale in my etsy shop ALL pendants are now only $10.00 so if there is something you have had your eye on be sure to snap it up before someone else does! :0) I'm going to be adding lots more to my shop in the coming days too!

Here are a couple of shots from our recent trip such a beautiful place! Hope you are all well and I look forward to catching up with my blog friends this weekend!
