Closer Look: this Seus-inspired jar is full of rhymes & imaginations yet unfolded. Created as one of five literary-themed jars. Sold in an art auction to support literacy programs. My favorite part was the colorful trees and sneaking in some whimsical pink clouds. Painted in acrylic. Small details created with pen & color pencil and secured with modge podge. Handwritten notes folded inside. #customcreations #art #literacy #drseuss #acrylic #imagination

Jeremy & Julie's treasure jar is filled with quotes about love, sonnets from Shakespeare, and sage advice about marriage. Decorated in vibrant flowers and hints of gold. My favorite part of this creative process was the quotes. Im a romantic and so sonnets came easy. I'm not yet married and so in selecting the pieces of advice I also gained some healthy insight. Also, I love creating artwork that celebrates love. 💜 The last picture is a peak into the creative process. All the bits ready for precision scissors. This is where I fall into a trance and awake covered in scraps. Jar created with: @marabucreativeusa pens @kohinooruz colored pencil @goldenpaints #customcreations #jarart #artcommission #multimedia #madewithlove

One of my early jars (a wedding gift for my co-worker). A project that brought many firsts! My first "couples" jar. Each filled with jars about love, friendship, and marriage. The intent that they each pull a quote and read to the other. My first multimedia jar: The skulls created with color pencil and fastened inside. Also an 'aha!' moment: After little success in finding a heavy-duty color sealant...it (finally) dawned on me that jars are transparent and therefore I could paint the inside! Capitalizing, once more, on the multi-facets! #art #colorpencils #multimedia #giftideas #gratitudejar #

Currently in a relationship with my color pencils (no shame) 🌈 Most passionate about @kohinooruz ...shh don't tell the others 🙊 Lots of the love for the others too: @prismacolor, #pentalic, @generalpencil. Shout out to those beautiful detail pens (@marabucreativeusa) #nutmegandwhimsy #art #colortherapy #arttherapy
