Kids room paintings inspired by having my own.

I have changed my style over the years, it still may be recognisable as mine, but I started wanting to decorate the world in children inspired art, especially for bedrooms & children's spaces after I had my own children.

I started working at Raw art Gallery in Noosa when Teddy was about 4 months old (I think).

My Large Florals and Underwater paintings were very successful, but for something different, I came full circle back to bears again, like when I was learning folk art & decorative painting.

From seeing these pictures, I was lucky to be asked to design a series of elephant paintings for a funky children's clothing shop in Noosa Junction called 'little lola lopp'.

They had set colour schemes of lime and aqua for the boys and orange and pink for the girls, I painted accordingly.

I thoroughly love being given the colours to work with or to get an idea from looking at the person's house to match their painting to their personality or surrounds.

I especially like putting special touches on paintings for children such as iridescent or metallic paint, glitter and sparkles, texture and beads etc or hiding their name on a leaf. Princess Mirabelle

I have painted many pictures for my children's friends, there are still so many ideas that I have but yet to do....my inspiration hasn't dried up and a large part of me refuses to grow up & do just 'serious' paintings.

So I am sure that I will be doing children's art for many years yet.

My own children are now asking where is my painting? So watch this space for their ones.
