I did pattens I never did before, just went nuts with the circles hehehe I particularly think the one with white circles turned out quite different from anything I've done before. Same for the one with the piggy and the bubbles. I wish I had a profound reason to it, (piggies and bubbles?) but the reality is that I was stuck, and instead of going for a solid color background I decided to make a pattern. Since I like polka dots, I just went polka on it :oP
Sometimes the result of being stuck is good, it can bring new elements to our work. Some other times... we remain stuck.
A tip I'd like to share for those times when we get blocked somehow: Get out your magazines, books, or go online for something unusual for your style. Get inspiration from shapes and patterns you have not done before. I was actually aiming for diamond shapes but ended up with circles.

Hey Martha, they are fantastic!! I will be looking in your shop ;o))) The girl with the flaming orange hair is cool!! I like your tip about when you are blocked!
Wow you have been super busy with great results.. yep know what you mean about the block, sometimes that sheet of white paper can be quite daunting!
Thanks Sherry, and Stacy!
They are beautiful Martha! Love the piggy bank aceo!
Thanks Pam, I was surprised to see it sold the same day!
I LOVE the circles, especially the girl with the red background/white circles.
You're right... when you get stuck (as we all do!) you have to seek out inspiration. I have all kinds of old art magazines for my "emergency" moments!
Great work!!!
Renee :)
