Hi Everyone!

August already!  This was one of the faster summers in this household!  Time to begin thinking towards the holidays. I’m pulling out photos I’ve taken, sketches I’ve drawn and buying some new paints to get started. Here is one of my favorite fall photos that may show up later on in my artwork:

I’m posting new things at Etsy every week, so be sure to check out my shop. I’m working on some wine glasses and a mailbox, in addition to mini canvases and larger paintings.

Thanks for stopping in and enjoy the day!

Hi Everyone!

Hope you are all staying cool!  Another hot summer weekend – thank goodness for air conditioning!

I’ve added something new to my Etsy shop:  ACEO cards. They are collectible  “Art Cards, Editions and Originals”, affordable small pieces of art.   The one criteria  for an ACEO is it must measure 2.5 x 3.5 inches.  Most ACEOs are two dimensional on paper.   These  cards are  fun to paint.  Etsy and Ebay host many artists selling ACEO cards. There is a  wide variety of topics and talent that makes checking out  the cards fun.

Take care !

Hi Everyone!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!    I wanted to share some new business cards I had made.  If you haven’t heard of Moo cards –  they are great! They are all digital so you can upload as many photos/logos are you want, have them printed and sent to your home.  You can have a different photo on each card if you like. It’s a great way to showcase your artwork as an artist.    Email me if you would like some of my new cards.

Some of you have seen these, but I have a new set on the way with the Etsy shop address.  I will post those when they arrive.

Enjoy your week!

Hi Everyone !

Just figured out the obvious – how to correctly add a link.  The link is also on the side blog roll. Here’s the Etsy store link:

It’s been interesting to see the changes in technology in the time that I have been painting.  All my early artwork is on printed photos or slides. Now slide film is difficult to find and everything is digital and online.  Having a blog to update everyone instantly and an online store makes things so much easier!  The painting and photographing are the easy part. The learning curve for me is  posting online with all the bells and whistles – all the things that the kids seem to know by instinct!

I am continuing to add paintings to the Etsy store – so keep checking in .  Etsy is holding a web “Christmas in July” sale.  I am so new that I am just offering a white poinsettia painting with free shipping.  Here’s a photo:

Also –  for those of you who are local – I would be more than happy to change  the Etsy shipping fees to free  and arrange a local delivery.  Just let me know.

Enjoy the day and take care!

Hi everyone!

I have been working on getting an online site opened to make it easier to view and purchase my artwork. Etsy seems like a good fit and comes highly recommended. Over the next  weeks, I will be continuing to add my artwork to my Etsy shop. I will be featuring some it here as well.  Here’s the link:

So take a peak at my work and let me know what you think.
