New Year: Changes are Coming

4 Comments Edit
Hey guys! Sorry I've been a bit MIA, but as I said, I will not be updating my blog on a daily-basis anymore. To tell you the truth, I just don't have the time.  But I'm hoping to update 2-3x a week. For now, we've updated the look & feel of the blog, hope you like it!  - Speaking about updating, I am STILL in the process of re-designing the MadeByGirl shop. 

We are working on a few things & these are some of the changes to come:
  • New paintings being added without a flash sale.
  • Larger paintings added.
  • More color series art.
  • 98-99% of the art sold will be only my original paintings. 
  • We will probably ONLY keep 2-3 MBG prints (prob the most popular ones)
  • The ones we do keep, we will be selling framed. 
  • You will still have option to frame the paintings.
  • I will still be accepting commissions, so you are welcomed to email me. 
  • New photos will  be added of the artwork & more.


If you hadn't heard, please read this post on why I'm shutting down a portion of my business. Stay tuned - it's a whole different ball game running a biz and being a mom. I'm sure some of you can relate & know what I mean! - Have a great week!

Hi there! Chassity here from Look Linger Love popping in to talk about my art fetish.  We all know and desperately love Jen's Cocoa & Hearts shop, so today I thought I would introduce you to some more amazing artists that I think you'll love as well.  


These pieces are fabulous, and naturally, they're all "made by girls".  Very talented ones.  In fact, I think you'll highly approve of this first artist!




Kate is a Charleston, SC girl (like me!) and I just so happen to have the privilege of calling her a friend.  She was one of the very first artists that really struck my fancy, and my love for her art has only grown. 


I recently did a Q&A with Kate on my blog that you might want to check out if you're liking what you see.  {It's definitely not one of those boring "tell me what inspired this piece" type of interviews!}.




You might be familiar with her hystericaly awesome blog, My Favorite & My Best aka MFAMB, but have you seen her paintings?  Jenny recently started sharing her work, and I'm a huge fan already.  And considering she's new, I'd say right about now is the time to invest if you know what I mean.





If you need to glam up your space on a limited budget then Leigh Viner's etsy shop is great place to peruse.  She sells originals and prints so there is something there for everyone.  And don't you just feel prettier looking at these?


I love Kate's softness in the background that is then overlapped with scribbles (I'm sure she wouldn't describe them that way though, ha! Sorry Kate).



My daughter Lilly is lucky enough to have a couple of pieces by Kate in her nursery.  Someday she'll thank me.



I started an impressive little collection of Sally's paintings.  She is another Charleston girl, another friend of mine, and seriously rocks my world.  I pretty much adore everything that she turns out.  I also did a Q&A with Sally {it's not the sucky boring type either} that you should definitely check out as she is one stylish girl to get to know.




Here I am along side the lovely Sally with a piece of hers that my husband purchased for me at one of Sally's shows.



Lilly Evans:


Lastly, what kind of mother would I be if I didn't share some of my baby girls' abstract masterpieces? I'm her biggest fan.



So I think I've taken over Jen's blog long enough.  I hope you've enjoyed this art tour today and have found some new artists to love.  I hope ya'll come see me sometime.  




Thanks for inviting me today, Jen.  xoxox, Chassity.

Cocoa & Hearts News...

While I was in NYC I launched a group of small 8x10 paintings via Cocoa & Hearts & they are now officially SOLD out!  

I had received several emails asking if I could make smaller ones that were more affordable... so that's why I did these. More to come soon! 



I also added these two larger pieces (below) & they were snagged right away! I'm so amazed & grateful - thank you for all the support!

I wanted to THANK you all for your support regarding the site & my work! This is something I've been contemplating for quite some time & glad I finally had the time to get it all together!



For those of you who purchased a painting, I'm so grateful....I really think you'll enjoy having it in your home!

Yes, I should be painting another batch - this time around I'll add some smaller ones to the mix!
