Alas de temple/ Serenity wings

I have been working with tempera this past month, 

the process is super slow but I think I love it, there is

a lot about patience that I have to learn!  I share with 

you a video of the process, some photos I took while

creating this sweet birdie!

Que las alas del alma
nos eleven hasta el amor

May the wings of the soul
elevate us to the true love

This week we had a few super cold days, I was really freezing over 

my studio but I got to wear my hat and gloves that I love, it`s mostly 

warm here in Mexico city and so we are never ready for this kind of weather!

The studio at a super early hour, this is when I wake up and this

is how it looks when it`s super clean!  My kitties are asleep, can

you picture them?  They are two! ;D

I am starting to create winter buddies!  I wish I had more

time to make them, they are so much fun!  So much to do

that makes me happy!  Do you ever find your self like that too?

I love this kitty!  I will have to make more of them!

This one is listed over my Etsy for one lucky shopper here!

Doll making!

Hi sweets!

I want to share what`s going on over Hands and Heart

studio this days, someone requested a couple of dolls and

so I decided to make a few more intended for selling and here

is the process of the first coming together!

The first part is not my favorite, the cutting is OK but 

it`s the reversing of the fabrics and stuffing them that 

me no like!  But it has to be done in order to get to the

fun part which is painting them and putting them all pretty!

It takes a lot of work of paint and I love fabric paint, mine are bought 

here in Mexico city!

My sweet brother is helping a lot with the tough part!

Sometimes he seams to be in a race!!

And here is the first one ready! I love the colors, someone gave me the

idea over My facebook page so I did it and loved it!  The skirt is also hand

painted by me

What do you think? Is she lovely?

I`ll share more finished pieces next week or check my facebook page

if you like daily updates!

Smile and be happy,

do what you like and

keep it up! ;D
