I'm going over to my bestie's house at the crack of dawn armed with <a href="https://www.anyoneforpimms.com/liquids/the-original-no1">Pimm's No. 1</a> and this <a href="http://people.com/food/darren-mcgrady-recipes-parfait-recipes/">Strawberry Parfait</a> that I found on the internet! Apparently, it's creator is a former palace chef - so you know it's going to be good! Stay posted on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/amandacbee/">IG</a> stories for a play by play Friday! Is anyone else planning on watching the royal wedding live?</span><br />

In all transparency - they made contact at the end of last year - gave me an allotment I could spend at <a href="http://commercialpalmtrees.com/">commercialpalmtrees.com</a> or <a href="https://www.silkplantsdirect.com/">silkplantsdirect.com</a> in exchange for a review! How could I say no? The silk plants web site, quite literally, has thousands of options to pick from! I love a good faux orchid (and good ones are hard to find!) - I ended up picking an arrangement similar to this <a href="https://www.silkplantsdirect.com/silk-flowers/flower-variety/orchid/orchid-colors/white-orchids/phalaenopsis-orchid-plant-white-green-pack-of-1-crg-hw-831ofls.html">one</a>! They came a few weeks later and were SO amazing! I picked up a large beautiful blue and white bowl from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/The-Peake-House-168926843123954/">Peake House</a> on Maryland Avenue in Annapolis, MD to put it in. Then I covered it in in <a href="http://www.michaels.com/ashland-spanish-moss-basil-green/10382824.html#q=moss&start=4">faux moss</a> from Michaels - couldn't have turned out better! Silk Plants Direct gets two enthusiastic thumbs up - can't wait to start decorating the second floor and fill all the rooms with faux orchids (that will live FOREVER!!)<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I think I've decided to start slowly sharing my work on this platform again - I promise to try my best to be as consistent as possible (with regards to posting regularly). I'll also be revamping and updating amandacbee.com soon as well as the Blogger site (as soon as I figure out how to!) I hope you love what you see and let me know in the comments section what you think! If you ever want to see something, just drop me a line. In the mean time, sit back and relax, grab a glass of whatever you like (right now I'm sipping on a Grapefruit Spin and enjoy the views! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Many of you know, many of you do not, but I am in grad school and it pretty much takes up all of my time. As a result, the Etsy shop is closed until December and the end of semester. I am still taking on commission work but as a disclaimer, completion time has drastically increased! If there's something you MUST HAVE, send me an email and I'll be more than happy to work with you, just know it may take longer than you're used to! Thank you all for understanding and I'll see ya in December!</span></div>

After spending a very long school year working my bee-hind off, there aren't enough words to express how happy I am to be painting again this summer break! A huge thank you to all my fans for being so supportive during the year, your patience was award winning. There are plenty of new and old clients keeping me busy as a bee these days and a pretty big announcement coming out soon (if all goes to plan!). I've always had a huge appreciation for art history and classic artists so I thought it might turn out great if I put my special artistic twist on some of mine and your favorite pieces! So if you there's one you really like, don't hesitate to shout it out! I'll be updating the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AmandaC.Bee" target="_blank">facebook</a> page and the ol' <a href="http://instagram.com/amandacbee/" target="_blank">instagram</a> accounts first and then posting and <a href="http://pinterest.com/amandacbee/from-the-studio/" target="_blank">pinning</a> later! So be sure to like the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AmandaC.Bee" target="_blank">facebook</a> page or <a href="http://instagram.com/amandacbee/" target="_blank">instagram</a> to see them first!!</div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I hope everyone had a terrific 2012! One of my New Year's resolutions was to get my art drawers ORGANIZED. With that thought in mind, I've decided to part with some of my sketch paintings and overstock/sample archival ink prints.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As a disclaimer, most of these pieces are not absolutely perfect. They are what I spent time on preparing for a larger scale painting (which is also found in this sale!).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Another disclaimer is that this is my first time doing this, there are bound to be some hiccups! So please bear with me if any unfortunate casualties arise! I have also never used Goodsie before, so fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly. There is a $5 shipping charge per piece, unless that piece is 5x5" or less (when you check out you must select $5 shipping)! An item may appear to be available but when you add it to your cart, if it has been sold, it will say sold out! If there's any questions please don't hesitate to contact me via email (I'll be posted by it for most of the day).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Side note, I didn't have a lot of time to properly photograph every piece but trust me that the colors are truly wonderful in person.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Thank you so much for stopping by and have a delightful day!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://michellearmas.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">Michelle</a> is one of my all time favorite artists. Her <a href="http://armasdesign.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">blog</a> is a must-see. Her use of color and her ability to compose a work that is so controlled yet chaotic has no parallel! I was so thrilled for her when I saw some of her work featured on <a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/search/24523292.jsp?cm_vc=SEARCH_RESULTS" target="_blank">Anthropologie's webshop</a>! My particular favorite is called "<a href="http://michellearmas.bigcartel.com/product/blarney-print" target="_blank">Blarney</a>" (hello, Mr. Turquoise!). One of my favorite activities from undergrad was assignments that were required to be "in the style of." So, I went all retro yesterday and got to work! Thanks to Michelle for everything she does, she's such an inspiration.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Andy Warhol is a personal favorite so when the time came to create a flyer for my school's annual can castle competition, I knew exactly what I was going to do! Side note, I know it's been a while since my last post but graduate school is keeping me plenty busy! I still take on commission work however, completion time has increased. I hope Sandy didn't treat everyone too poorly! We got lucky here in Annapolis, nothing like the Jersey shore. My heart goes out to the heavily effected!</span></div>

Cool Commissions! When you see this title, you can expect to see a post featuring and devoted to some of my past custom works (<i>in all honesty though, all of my clients are the coolest</i>).</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This first set was done for the lovely Sarah of <a href="http://www.toomuchneverenough.com/" target="_blank">Too Much is Never Enough</a>! She was a delight to work with and was among the first of my subjects to be wearing Lilly Pulitzer! I just love how the pattern turned out (no matter how long it took!). (Side note, the images below were stitched together and are in fact square as most of my commissions are).</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk1SLY3ZD3B-v84_J_LcE1OSZ-tSzKGAQOAm4Y8mkZtowPRN5HuWbFG-aQ-QKvyPV65iIPGCtLzWjjQlydSRnzW5NVbWTahNw1OhV2tN-UOTSg4cRNvMAvrW2cgoT06djS2Iq2aqI5Wl4/s1600/Image+(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk1SLY3ZD3B-v84_J_LcE1OSZ-tSzKGAQOAm4Y8mkZtowPRN5HuWbFG-aQ-QKvyPV65iIPGCtLzWjjQlydSRnzW5NVbWTahNw1OhV2tN-UOTSg4cRNvMAvrW2cgoT06djS2Iq2aqI5Wl4/s320/Image+(1).jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This portrait features four girls posing before prom! The person 3rd from left was actually wearing a Lilly dress but unfortunately this was before I knew I could handle a Lilly print.

</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This last cool commission, is definitely one of the coolest. My client was looking for something abstract that would go with a multitude of colors. After a lengthy discussion, and a few drafts, this was the end result. I think it turned out wonderfully!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Rugby is a brand managed by iconic American designer Ralph Lauren. This branch features fun twists on timeless classics aimed for a younger generation or the young at heart (ie. shorter hemlines, slimmer fits and lower price points, but to heck with it, age is just a number, right?) and LOTS of rugby shirts (<i>swoon</i>). I'm a huge fan of stripes this season (<i>well...any season...</i>) and here a few of my favorite dresses from the Summer collection! Have ya ever seen a "make your own" section with so much to offer (who doesn't <i>love</i> a unique and personalized gift?!)?? I'm lucky enough to have a shop in nearby Georgetown and frequent it (and the accompanying cafe!). Any other Rugby Ralph Lauren fans in the house?!</span></div>Amanda C.
