surfy birdy

ok so it has come time for a little change in my art world. i see myself drifting away from the peace owl character more and more and painting what is in my heart more and more and that is the sea and surfing. Don't worry the peace owl is not going away he is just one part of my art and my heart so you will still see him but my main focus will be surf art and inspirational quote art, as I have bee n doing. I want to continue to spread peace & love but with lots of stoke mixed in. I hope you like the direction I am heading and I hope you continue to inspire me to do what I do with the sharing of your smiles & joy. I am starting the change of name with my instagram which was hello_birdy the new name is now: surfybirdy. So if you are on instagram you can start by following me there. This name will be incorporated with my new shirts I have printed and the new artwork to come. enjoy & stay stoked. Love, Surfy Birdy aka Peace Owl Forest instagram: surfybirdy facebook: www...

saturday was the 6th annual Stitch Rock Indie Craft Show & Bazaar . it is held at Old School Square Delray in an old vintage gymnasium over 80 unique crafty & vintage vendors are spread out inside the gymnasium and also outside under a giant tent. this year i went for the outside spot rather than my usual inside spot the 3 years before, figured id be closer to nature but it was a tad humid this day but it was still nice. i have cut down on craft shows so i did feel a bit out of practice. wish my display was a little more exciting. a lot of work goes into preparing for a craft show and i crafted lots of new paintings, created flower power produce size bags & sandwich size bags, lots of new ceramic dishes & new prints. Thank you to all the birdys that came and took some treasures home from my booth & the many other crafty vendors at this show. supporting handmade & keeping events like this going is wonderful for communities. I am excited to be a...
