Meet Shirley, She’s dedicating fifteen minutes to intense worrying. Afterwards, she’s going to eat a hot fudge sundae, say hello to a stranger and read a trashy romance novel instead of listening to the news. This original Goauche portrait is part of my “Ladies on Clipboards” series. She will cheerfully hang on your wall causing smiles, and then, when you need to take notes, or make a list, or write a poem, she will be there to help. 9”x12” Just listed on my Etsy shop: # mod portraits#clipboardart#goauche#goaucheportraits #zines #minizines#askyourgrandma#memoir#upcycleartist #etsyshopowner#vintagereseller#elisapetersondesign#illustration# illustratedmemoir#goaucheportraits#goauche##nanazines#Etsy.com#zinefest #zinesforsale #zines#orangedoorvintageetsy.com#nanazinesetsy.com#orangedoorcottageetsy.com#fanzine#instagood#artzine#graphicdesign#comics#zinestagram (at Fircrest, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO6QoTyjYy6/?igshid=6zx8mmxt64s

Meet Helen,who just picked a bunch of Basil from her window box and is hoping to lure the handsome Albanian fix-it man to her apartment with the aroma of cooking Pesto pasta. A perfect piece of functional art student or a small apartment dweller. She hangs there on the wall, causing smiles and good feelings. Then, when you need to make a list or take notes or write a poem, she’s ready to help. I painted her and then sealed her with a durable coat of varathane. An original painting.
