Enjoy your Year!
I posted this a little while ago on my simpage blog and thought that with a little bit of time I’ll post it here.
Unfortunately, a little bit of the RL has started to get in the way and I’ve become quite at a loss for time so my simming priorities are taking a little bit of a back seat. I’m fine, nothing serious, but I will be taking a break… probably indefinite.
I’m still lurking around when I get the chance and I miss all of you! I hope you have a wonderful year and give my best to all those who perhaps don’t read this. You’ve all been a wonderful community to be around.
Lots of love, Sunny

Corrupt Lots
I ran my lots through the custard tool and have found out that the Coffee House contains the doll and some corrupt CC [I have therefore removed it form my page] and the Rookwood house contains invalid photos [?].
Also, for those of you that have downloaded the Tina Jacobson Collection, there is one set of paintings in there that is corrupt due to the mesh I used to create it, so I would recommend uninstalling the file named “Four Tina Jacobson Paintings”. If anyone finds any more problems with my lots, please PM at the Simmer’s Society or Builder’s boulevard, or contact me via comments on this post.
Tina Jacobson Collection
Lately, whilst working on my variety of modern lots, I realized I lacked paintings I really liked, especially for the moderns. So I buckled down and creating an astonishing amount, so please welcome the first of many: The Tina Jacobson Collection. I just want to add that if you’d like to view her wonderful art or purchase some real artwork you can go to her website at http://www.tinajacobson.id.au.
I don’t know how I first stumbled upon this amazing artist’s work, probably in one of my many House & Home Magazines. She is a phenomenal abstract artist, and I couldn’t think of anyone better to start off my slew of abstract art. I hope you enjoy many of her pieces. Mesh credits go to SimsArtGallery, Desdren and of course, myself!
All files are in .sims3pack format because, personally, this does not slow down my game and does not create issues with crashing and lagging. I find it more reliable and safer, easier to uninstall if need be and easier to keep track of. I hope you enjoy!
These three are all located in the same file, Small Abstract Art Collection, to reduce file space needed.
Again, these three are all one file, Medium Abstract Art Collection.
These four are also in the same file.
My lack of uploads!
I just wanted to let you all know that NO, I have not abandoned my simming creations. I’ve actually created a few homes, and have embarked on a new series of similarly constructed homes, but do to the faultiness of the exchange, I don’t feel they will get what they deserve so I will be abstaining from uploading until the exchange is fixed. Thank you for reading and understanding!
Sincerely, Sunny

Thom Thomson Collection

I am a proud Canadian and an art fanatic, and now that I’ve found the enjoyable activity of creating sims 3 paintings for you, I thought, “Hey! What a great idea! I’ll showcase my favourite Canadian artists.” So, I begin with a collection of six paintings by Group of Seven artist, Thom Thomson. To minimize file size, I’ve made a 5 in 1 painting for you. They are also both .sims3pack files. Enjoy! Leave me a comment too!
