Ok, so i am starting to paint again...it's been a few months vacation now. I have more ideas in my head than I have time to paint. I am always on the lookout for more inspiration when it comes to color and design...so much intrigues me.

SUKIE really makes my mind think more simply and the colors are great. I really like animals in more of this 'wood cup out stamp' style. It reminds me of some of the children's books that my parents would read to me when I was young that they read when they were young.

I also like these (I can't credit the source right now...they are from my design files I have been collecting over the past few months...most likely from the print and pattern blog)
