Yes.....I did it again. I'm sorry ~ but this time, you can all relate so don't judge me please πŸ˜‚! It was BREYERFEST weekend and things
got a  * little * crazy for me. 
You can smash in some personal drama and outside work into the mix to create a wonderful batter 
of someone losing their mind. But I think I've got it back LOL ~ I had a wonderful first time of Breyerfest, and sold most of the ponies! And even got a couple fun things that I could squeeze funds for. So excited to share what the one in particular....
But ~ back to what this is all ABOUT!!!

Artist of the Week is .....Shane Langbauer of Wiggle Workz Studios! 

Shane could not have a sale of her work this Breyerfest as she has other exciting things happening in her life, so I wanted to share her work with you all this week because I sincerely look up to this artist as a huge inspiration to my own work, and hope to have a fraction of her talent one day. I am blessed to call her a hobby artist friend! Not to mention, she is a wealth of painting knowledge and has opened up June of Medallion Madness Month where she collects folks together to paint all June of just medallions!  

This insanely talented lady is QUEEN of medallions and dramatic colours, in my personal opinion, that just POP.  Even those "subtle" colours are not really subtle after she has finished her shading wonders. I personally love her grullas/dilutes, buckskins and chestnuts.  Working with oils and pigments for those striking horses that are highly sought after in the hobby by many collectors, she has completed several beautiful pieces that are below ~ just a big photo dump because I cannot pick a favourite to share as they are all just honestly amazing. πŸ’–  She is not taking commissions from the public any longer but every so often a piece, often a medallion, pops up and is quickly snagged so anyone always has to be quick! 

Please check out her work and social media if you have not already and give her a follow! Here is her Facebook  her Website, and her Instagram!

Hello hello. Hope everyone made it through their Monday! I've had a time of it lately with motivation in the studio. I always go by my mother's quote "An effort a day keeps failure away."  But its a time where I can't push myself. Just focus on little things in the studio like "Sculpt just a muzzle on the commission." Just get the magnets in on one drastic project, as its been waiting awhile. Just paint a layer on one or two of the mini resins in house. Why not start painting a medallion that will be in the Breyerfest sale? (Ooops...;)  Little by little motivation happens and as you think about things, suddenly its not so hard to just sit down and work with your hands. It can be tough when a hobby turns into something else, but you have to keep the joy within it, otherwise there is no point in continuing. So its important to take breaks. I get overwhelmed easily, especially since it is my very first Breyerfest with the studio participating, and all the p...

  *photo credit to Janilyn Kooy*  Friends! Last night was a special moment for me. It became official that a dream I have had since a little girl was to come true ~ to have a pony of my very own. Chance, aka LadyLuck Hero, is now part of the family. πŸ’• Its one thing to work with horses and ponies (and long ears) that belong to others when their owners are generous and kind to share. It was as close as I could get, and I learned a ton of what goes on in horse life that way. I've ridden many different horses and handled and pet many more, and I was happy with that. I still have two very specific horses I am very attached to in the way of sentimental value. πŸ’œ God provides, and I knew my time would come one day. But it didn't stop me from always praying for a pony for my own.  Fast forward those years and times and many prayers. Last spring a friend and neighbour had a gorgeous Canadian mare, and she was not sure if the mare was pregnant or not. Well it turned out the mare w...

  For awhile now I have been wanting to do something about featuring an artist every week. There are SO many wonderful artists in the model horse hobby, and all I want to do pretty much is share some of their work, with links to their social media ,and basically give a shout out to them! Sometimes we all just need a boost and a lil support from others where there are no obligations and just to simply share because we want to. This goes for both to the professional, accomplished studios who have worked hard to achieve their artistry, and to the new and starting out studios, learning and growing with every horse they paint. :) We all are at our own pace and journey with different goals. We can paint for fun or personal enjoyment, or as some who paint as a side hobby or even for a few of us, it is our full time work! But we all think the same : we love to create and we love to paint horses...both in 2D and 3D scale.  This week's Artist of the Week goes to.... ElΕΌbieta Zarzecka of...
