Helping Others Makes Me Happy!

 I recently presented a workshop to young women on the topic of living their best lives. I love my job! 

One of the portions of the workshop focused on the Thoughts/Feelings/Actions/Outcomes cycle we are constantly rolling through ALL THE TIME.  Start at the top (Thoughts) and make sure you remember that  (I’m gonna shout this) YOUR THOUGHTS AREN’T NECESSARILY FACTS! Can you feel it? 

New House Mural Coming January 21st!

I am SOOOOOO excited to work on my next room mural in my sweet and lovely old house! We signed for her on 1/21/20 then 1 year later I painted my office with a yellow and white floral theme, and now to celebrate our 2nd anniversary I’m updating the powder room with a wrap around mural with this design I created, inspired by some 1940’s wall paper I found on the interwebs. 

What do you think?

Stay tuned and watch the live painting happening over on my personal FB page @FilomenaJackArtist.

Here’s a sample from my gift site! The pattern I designed can be added to lots of fun clothing and home items.

PUMPKIN WEATHER!!! (yes, I'm shouting!)

 I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the fall. The air! The trees! The best holidays of all (Halloween and Thanksgiving!)...and an official holiday: Inktober. 

Inktober if you don't know, is a world wide inking/art challenge where you create an inky art piece everyday in October. I've participated each year since...um, I can't remember, but it's been a lot of years.

Here's an option for your sketches this year (it's from my art collection on my gift page):

Here are the 2021 Inktober prompts and hashtags associated with the event. I can't wait to see what you create!

That's one BIG mural!

This fun lady was completed in FIVE weeks  and is about 3,000 square feet. (wow, that's a lot of brick!)

She can be visited at the corner of William x 2nd Streets in Elmira, NY :)
 

What a good dog!

 I recently completed a painting of the very charming and patient Gaya pup! Look at that pitty smile! I took this painting in a new direction...less folk arty and more photo realistic. What do you think?

Newest Mural Complete!

 Wow! What a fun time I've had working on a commissioned mural for the Watkins Glen Area Camber of Commerce! 

Yesterday was the ribbon cutting and I really felt like I was living my best life (I am!).

Thanks to my friend J.D. Iles for the photo!

I'm looking forward to new projects coming soon...including some spray paint excitement!
