Hi everyone, thanks for coming to see these! I missed the last (and the first) Paint Party Friday  and I was really sad about it cause I was looking forward A LOT. Well, I am glad that I made it for this friday, although I am like THE LAST on the list. oh well... hopefully someone will still come visit :) In the last months I've had an idea to paint scenes from my country (the Czech republic), but since landscapes and building were always a challenge for me, I didn't really know what format I should go for and what medium to use. And then I finally got it! ACEO! Watercolor and Acrylics... why not :) I enjoy painting little things so much and figured that it could ease it up for me with such challenging themes. Well, I simply want to share the beauties of my home country, because I myself adore them. So here are first three. Hope you will like them!! This is town's square of Kromeriz, you can see a castle's tower on the left, right behind it are the castle gard...

Hi :) I finally got to what I wanted to do for a long time! Dog breeds! I had been sketching and doodling but never took it farther. Why? I didn't know which way to go! What format, what texhnique... hand drawn or digital? But as I discovered ACEOs and became more fond of watercolors, I started realizing - that this is it! :) And so here they come! I have only a few, but I think it's good for the start! What do you think?? I will work probably alphabetically, but if anyone wants me to jump to some breed faster, I can do it;) They are all gonna be available (and THESE ALREADY ARE) on etsy - http://katehollart.etsy.com Please, leave some comments. Do you like them? Would you buy? What is your most favorite breed? Is three of each good number for the start?

The White Chihuahua loves cookies! And the Welsh Corgi too! :) And there will be a few more soon;) available for sale on ebay:  http://myworld.ebay.com/etsykate/  look for my items for sale. with greetings, Kate:)

Hi and thanks for coming to see my Sunday sketches :) I really enjoy doing this and hope that you will enjoy what you can see in my blog and in this post. These came around actually very randomly. I am in nature a line lover and since I haven't done anything like this (and left it black and white) for quite a while, I decided to just go for it and enjoy the lines again. And I did. I loved drawing these! They are just some young ladies, one is a fairy, another is an angel, the third one a teenager, and the last one a lover. They are titled with the first thing that came to my mind and I think it fits well enough :) When you look at them, you may notice that I enjoy drawing figures in different postures, the faces, and hair... yes, i love to draw these :) I am still unsure if and where I am going to post these for sale. They are cards 5x7 and they will be available only as originals. If you'd be interested, just come back here in a couple of days and the answer (and the lin...

I call them the "B" kittens. I believe they are siblings as they have same date of birth and pretty look quite alike :) Their names are Brady, Bradley and Bethany.  Cute cute kittens! This German Shepherdess is called Persephone. Beautiful name!  This kitty looked a bit shy and frightened. His name is Rocky. Isn't he absolutely wonderful? .I know I am talking like this about my PAINTINGS.. or so it seems, but I really have the real animals in mind. You can see them all here: furryfriendsrescue.org Make sure to check it out! They need help and lots of love!
