Cocoa & Hearts Pineapple Art

11 Comments Edit
Pineapples are one of my favorite fruits.  According to a few articles I've read in the past, it may have originated from Brazil or South America. It actually was introduced into the European markets through Christopher Columbus who discovered the fruit in Guadeloupe in 1493. Not many people know this fact. It's a symbol of hospitality, so it's used as decoration in many homes in order to convey, 'welcome to our home'.  It's been a staple in the design industry - seen on everything from wallpaper to tea towels.

They're just so beautiful and has inspired me to paint it in a unique & colorful way.  Of course we don't see hot pink pineapples, but in a Cocoa & Hearts art world, anything is possible & diversity is welcomed. Crazy huh? Each 11" x 14" piece is hand painted using acrylics on Canson, acid free paper.  They're all unique & will come signed with a certificate of authenticity.  Framing is optional on some of the pieces, but I'd suggest framing these in a gold frame, looks the best!

{ These original art pieces will go on SALE soon via my Cocoa & Hearts gallery - Stay tuned!! }






Proceeds from this artwork will go toward our adoption. 

ALSO,  If you have a brick & mortar shop (anywhere in the world) & would like to carry these original paintings in your store, please email us here.

Hey guys ! Welcome back...I swear, it was so nice to get some rest this weekend, I totally needed it. My chiropractor told me that I needed to get off my computer to help my BACK PAIN...seems like ours computers are our worst enemies at times, know what I mean?!??

 Hope you all had a great few days as well! As for me, I've been working on some commissions with a few clients - here is one I did yesterday for a client's home office. She wanted a combination of blush pinks & gold mainly. I love the way it turned out, how about you??

I'm still working on a few more but should be available to start more commissions around October 25th or so. If interested email me with size of painting you'd like & colors you prefer to see. If you're unsure of style, visit my gallery at Cocoa & Hearts.




Also - more paintings to be added as well to the gallery toward the end of this month!

Cocoa & Hearts News....

22 Comments Edit
Hello everyone....it's the middle of the week & we decided to launch the new Cocoa & Hearts paintings today. 

So, for those of you who subscribe to the mailing list, you heard about it first!

We added 14 paintings (1 large & 13  8"x10")  to the gallery & they sold out in about 59 minutes! Yowza!

I'm always SHOCKED at how quick they go! This time we thought we'd try something different & add a timer during the checkout - which gave you 15 minutes to purchase it. When the timer ran out, it would be released to the site again & available for purchase. Not sure what everyone thought of this, but I think next time we're going to shorten the timer to 5-10 minutes. 

For those emailing me if I have anymore pieces available, I should have more next month.



Thank you to all those who have supported my work. Have a great Wednesday!

Glimpse into my Tuesday morning class....

37 Comments Edit
Just got back from my illustration class, here's a glimpse of my class & what I was working on this weekend. I chose to draw Yvonne Craig's 1966 Batgirl, painted with gouache (Alex Ross) style. However, I decided to add some purple glitter to her outfit, made it really stand out more. (You can barley see it here, but it covers her entire outfit) Enjoy.
