I love doing pet portraits! In the past, I often worked in acrylics, sometimes watercolor, but my new passion is digital pet portraits. I love everything about the process – drawing and painting WITHOUT the mess! My goal with my portraits is to capture some of that “special delight” we each know so well about […]
“Post” Pandemic
While our country still suffers from too many deaths due to COVID, we are seeing a dramatic decrease in those numbers. Most states are lessening restrictions and we have a significant percentage of adults immunized. It saddens me deeply that there are many people still saying they want “more proof” that the vaccine is safe […]
Changing the Site
Since it is still unknown if/when we can safely begin face painting and balloon work at events or in homes, I am changing up my site to temporarily remove those pages. While I can create items for delivery, this has to be a no-contact delivery/setup. It will help immensely if people will just follow the […]
Creating a Creative Life
Today I’ve been thinking about what I would like to accomplish in the few years ahead. At closing fast on 68, there are certainly more behind than ahead. It isn’t something I like to dwell on, but I know that not facing that fact and reviewing my life and what I want it to be […]
Shop Local/Shop Small
It has been months since I last created a balloon sculpture and several weeks since I picked up a face painting brush. Like many, I find it almost impossible to keep my spirits up during these challenging times. I tried to create a creativity thread, but my heart just isn’t in it at the moment. […]
Celebrations Continue!
While face painting must be on hiatus during this phase of the pandemic, balloons are very much available! I can create personalized table top or floor centerpiece/decor items to celebrate graduations, birthdays, showers, etc. This video was for a birthday event that had a “sea theme”. Use the Contact or the Request a Quote form […]
Happy July!
Lately when people say they want things to get back to normal, I’m sort of scratching my head to remember what that means. Perhaps that’s a good thing. Maybe we have the opportunity to reinvent “normal” in a better way. I have friends that are loving working from home. Meetings are shorter because everyone is […]
Opening Up
Here in the Flower Mound area, as in much of Texas, there are tentative moves toward opening up. Covid cases continue to pop up so everyone is watching the current situation closely and hoping that things will continue to level and eventually drop. Here at Merry Sherry’s Creations, we are not quite ready to go […]
An Opinion Piece
What an extraordinary time this has been for the world. To those who have lost friends and family, my heart and prayers go out to you. I know this has been devastating for many – from the loss of loved ones, the loss of jobs, money, in many cases homes. Watching the news is disheartening […]
Graduation
Everyone looks forward to this rite of passage. Parents look forward to seeing their children take flight into adulthood. Children look forward to laying claim to “getting through” the craziness of school, school, school. But finding ways to celebrate in the current coronavirus pandemic adds a whole new level of “I survived it and lived […]
