Watercolor paintings and wearable art treasures by SkipperBay

Love of painting + active toddlers = watercolor mini-art!

I started with finger paints as a toddler, and have loved to paint and create ever since. Now that I have toddlers of my own, it's tricky--if not impossible--to finish any major art projects. But like any of life's challenges, this one brought new opportunities. I had to find a medium that I could work with for 5 minutes here and there between the needs of my children--something that wouldn't be ruined if I let the paints dry out, and that would easily wash off of curious little hands, or off of floors when I let them paint with mommy. I found the perfect medium for this new phase, and my love for watercolors was born and nurtured. Miniature art was the next obvious choice for me; I could start and finish a project during a rare and precious time they call "nap".

I love every single one of my creations, and sometimes I even give them a little silent (OK, out loud) sendoff, wishing them well on their journey to their new state or country. I hope you love them as much as I do, and if you don't see your favorite, I will be happy to paint it for you.

Watercolor Jewelry set under glass:

-My watercolor jewelry is splash/rain-resistant but should be dried immediately to prevent possible water damage to the miniature painting.

-Do not leave pieces flat in direct sunlight for several hours as the glass can work as a magnifier for heat and cause damage to the painting. Wearing the jewelry on a sunny day is totally fine!

For original mini or full-sized watercolor paintings:

-Remove paintings from frames before cleaning the frame to avoid water seeping onto the painting, or clean frames with a dry cloth

-I use light-fast paints and archival paper, but if a painting will be hung where it will receive direct sunlight on a regular basis, UV-blocking glass is recommended.
