Naughty....

I'm bad....I didn't do a Giffy Pop this week. I felt like painting instead. Lately I have ocean fever and just want to be at the beach. But we live dead smack in the middle of the country. Alas I have to paint my ideal scenario. It's up on etsy in case you have fantasy ocean fever too. Aqua Daydreams

Spread LOVE....says the prancing alpaca!

Black and Whites!

After doing 3 coloring books for Quarry/Rockport (that are coming out in September and I CANNOT WAIT to share) I realized how much I loved doing just black and white art. In the beginning of the project I struggled because I'm such a fan of color. But then the doodle aspect of it became therapeutic! In February I completed all 90 pages of the coloring books and since then I really miss it. In my spare time/ha! I've decided to dedicate a little Tumblr specifically any B & W artwork I have time for. Here's the link to see more! http://sarahwalshsblackandwhites.tumblr.com/

Ice Cream Lurve

Yes, only three weeks in I'm late already...So I'm a day late and a dollar short...what does that even MEAN?! Better late than never I always say. Wednesday was a busy day so this weeks it's "Giffy Pop Wednesday but Really Thursday". For this one I decided to do a little self promotion piece. Promoting oneself is awkward sometimes. At least for me anyway. Some folks have no problem and more power to them for it. I always feel like I'm saying "Look at me! Look what I can do!" Me, me, me.... But as a freelance artist it's something I'm going to have to get comfortable with. Like a lot.....
So......here is me slapping my name on some triple scoop ice cream friends! Enjoy :)

Saying see ya later, not good bye!

One of my bestest bestest friends and her awesome husband who has become like a brother to me, is moving away to Beaufort, South Carolina.  We've all been through a lot together. It's really quite hard to sum it up with words how I feel. I've been in denial about them leaving because I'm happy for them really. And because I don't want to properly deal with my emotions yet! I know them moving is the right thing to do. So I kick my sad feelings to the curb and when I have a private moment I pick them up off the street and nurse them quietly.....SOB!....That said, I've been pretty busy and don't have time to perfect the movements of this little giffy pop. The action is quiet and barely noticeable. Maybe it's a metaphor on how huge changes just kinda sneak up on you! Love ya to pieces Meems and Spence!
