New works

I am trying to find more time to fit in some artwork in my busy day. So far I have completed a mixed media birth piece that I need to get a picture of... it is too large for my scanner. I am also working on a painting of some of our chickens perched on the railing of the deck. More updates as soon as I have some to post.

Babies!

All the artwork on this blog is the property and creation of Toni Rakestraw. If you would like to ask a question about any of them or find out about a commission, please email me at toni @ organic-birth.com.

I find great peace and enjoyment in creating my art. I hope you enjoy it as well.





























Birth & Pregnancy Art

There is nudity in the following pictures, so if you would rather skip past them, just scroll down fast to the animals and plants below.



All my work is done in either graphite or acrylic. I really like drawing on heavy watercolor paper... at least 140 lb. It gives a nice texture to the drawing and doesn't lose its tooth when an area needs heavy work.

Florals

My Art

This blog has been created to post images of my art. Please do not take them without my permission. If you ask, chances are I will grant you permission, depending on what you are using my art for. If you do not ask, my feelings will be hurt and I will be forced to be a rather nasty person, which is something I don't like to be.

Enjoy.
