You Are Good Enough!

youaregoodenoughblog

Following on from my last post, I sat down to paint my first painting since my miracle and look what came out! I was painting in the background first and trying to see what was there and then I saw them, these two little whimsical characters and a little house. I went with it and discovered that these two are symbolic of what has happened to me and I knew instantly that this would be called ‘You ARE Good Enough!’. How perfect!

It’s been quite an adventure to paint since my miracle, I’ve felt like God is working on me to refine my skills and paintings are happening that are total surprises to me, like this one. I think they are quite cute, don’t you?

Looking forward to sharing more with you on this adventure.

That’s Better!

Need a lift? It’s been a little tough for me lately and this latest painting is a cute little reminder - because sometimes you really do need a cuppa and a cake to feel better! (Just not every day lol :D)

Chickens!

homesteadsmall

Well, I never thought I would be painting chickens! LOL! But every evening we walk past this beautiful homestead while walking Ellie.

The grounds around it always has chickens roaming or bunnies hopping around. It’s just such a delight to see that I couldn’t resist painting my impression of it all.

Next up, the geese by the river!

‘Homestead’ is now available at my Etsy store.

Rainbows

rainbowcottagesmall

We’ve had some pretty weird weather here lately. Yesterday we had some mild storms, lot’s of lovely rain and then the sun was out and the rain came down, but where was the rainbow? I couldn’t see it from my house.

I was thinking, I don’t often see them but when I do wow do they blow me away. We once saw a double rainbow when we were walking Ellie, wish I’d had my camera with me.

This little painting ‘Rainbow Cottage’ was inspired by my love of country and rainbows!

Lot’s of sparkle on this one, you know I just couldn’t resist :)

Have a wonderful weekend, I’ll be back blogging early next week.

Shop Update!

newjuly

Summer has definitely arrived here in the UK, it’s been very hot the last couple of weeks. I enjoy getting out a little and sitting under the parasol for short breaks or for dinner but the rest of the time I like to be indoors trying to keep cool.

This has given me the perfect opportunity to do a shop update over at Etsy and share with you some old favs made into prints and some new originals and prints too.

I’ve decided to have a break from ebay for a little while so you can find all my art over at Etsy for the time being.

Enjoy the sunshine and don’t forget your sunscreen ;)

I hope you all are having a wonderful Easter Holiday weekend, I’ve been busy refreshing my Etsy store today with some stunning dramatic new photography. I decided to move all my photography to my main store to make it easier for you to see what’s new and also easier for me to manage. So, I present to you three new stunning prints taken this year, now available at my Etsy store.

Photography makes me really excited, seeing the beauty and glory of all of God’s creation is just amazing. Expect much more photography over the coming year.

Also, I’m having a special sale on a couple of pieces on ebay. They are on a special 3 day listing starting today and ending on Thursday. They are listed at a lower price so please head on over and check those out.

Well I hope you have a great rest of the day and don’t eat too much chocolate ;)

Love and Blessings,

Sunday Afternoon

sunday afternoon folk art painting by Niki Jackson

sundayafternoonsmall

Ahh remember what warm Spring Sunday afternoon’s feel like? I’m dreaming of them as I sit cold with no hot water and a cranky boiler waiting for a repair! Still I got the heating working so I’m warming up :)

I had some exciting ideas for new things I could work on next for the shop today, so watch this space for news on those.

‘Sunday Afternoon’ is now available on ebay.

Hope you are keeping warm, we’ve had more snow the last couple of days.
