About Me

My photo
Hi, My name is Irene Owens. My greatest passion in life is Art. I love drawing portraits, painting whimsical pictures and illustrating for children. I also collect children's books and hope to one day get one of my own picture books published. I have a shop on Etsy where I sell my prints, hand painted pendants and mirrors. In this blog you will find artists that inspire me, brilliant handmade creations and my own art. I hope you enjoy my posts.

Chiho Makino

Trying to fight jet lag by staying up till at least 9 o'clock. My husband and son have failed miserably and are now snoozing together.
Everything is starting to look a bit fuzzy around the edges and I think I'm starting to dream... I have this same feeling when I look at paintings by Chiho Makino. Aren't they lovely?

Pete Revonkorpi

I've mentioned before that I prefer traditional painting to digital. BUT. There's a few artists I adore who paint digitally and do so amazingly, beautifully. Have a look at my favorite illustrations by Pete Revonkorpi. They are like poetry in pictures, when I look at them, stories appear in my mind and I can even hear music. This is a true meaning of art for me personally. You can see more of Pete's wonderful paintings here Pesare
