Coco the Chihuahua

Coco is the chihuahua I plan to include in my next novel, nicknamed Emerald Artists. Her mummy Freya is a painter who meets an animal artist who specialises in pet portraits. Needless to say, Jake will paint Coco in this book. So I needed to have something to inspire me to keep going before I get stuck into Freya and Jake's love story.

About the Painting

I imagine Coco is a cheeky chihuahua. She loves cuddles and snuggling into blankets, especially as I'm setting her book in winter. Coco also loves to play in the gardens, go on picnics, and spend a lot of her time just being cute.

Art is a new love of mine. I love creating vibrant, visual pieces of art to brighten up my - and other peoples! - home. While I've always loved being creative with words and dance, I've never been a visual artist. But now, I'm so excited to be exploring this new hobby.

In early 2019, I attended a social paint and sip night in Townsville called Wasted Paint where we are instructed through the basics of a painting. I loved going there, learning new techniques, and seeing the many different paintings that are created by the one prompt. By the end of 2019, I honed everything I'd learned to create paintings for my family for Christmas. Sadly, Wasted Paint was cancelled during the pandemic of 2020.

It wasn't until August 2020 when I picked up a paintbrush again. When my little dog Timmy was diagnosed as terminal and we knew his days were numbered, I decided to do a painting for my mum. It helped me deal with my grief by painting my childhood puppy Timmy at the rainbow bridge where my other childhood dog Dillon was waiting for him. During this, I rediscovered my love for painting and set myself a new goal - to paint Timmy.

That's when I joined Lauren Elizabeth Fine Art's online Animal Art Masterclass. Now, my goal is to paint animals. I also hope to build my skills in landscapes to capture images from my books. And that's the story so far!

So this is just a little blog where I share the paintings I've created.
