king of the mountain

Do you remember this post showing a painting I had just started?  Well here it is done!  It changed quite a lot and I had to fight with it a bit, but those are the ones I usually end up liking the most.  It will be available soon.

and they were all yellow

Jan and Earl over at Poppytalk have a fun fall theme going on this week.  It is autumn color week over there, today is yellow.  Here is my contribution which also happens to be a new print in the shop!  I have a few new pieces that are going in this week (and for real this time, several originals!).

art, stuff to give, stuff to have

team effort

Wow, September!  The last few weeks I’ve been finishing up a few things, making a much anticipated return to a past passion (more on that soon)  and enjoying the last days of summer before the kids go back to school.    Also, I’ve been working with fawn&forest to plywerk some of my paintings.  They are now available there along with some great selections from many other artists.large.jpgHappy weekend!

So delighted to see the new issue of small magazine in my inbox this morning!  I contributed several paintings to the issue and it was so fun!  All the paintings will be available as prints in my etsy shop later today as well as the original paintings.  Be sure to check out the entire issue.  It is, as always, full of good stuff!smallmag5.jpgsmallmagazine.jpgsmallmag2.jpgsmallmag3.jpg

pieces making up the whole

I helped myself to generous quantities of paint chips this weekend and had some fun.  You might remember me mentioning this amazing portrait a while back and I finally sat down to give it a go.  It was SO much fun and I’m really happy with how it turned out.  Now I need to do one of my daughter…paperportrait.jpgpaperportraitdetail.JPG
