Another New Painting




This is another in the series, I worked on the three at the same time. This painting is 12"x 12" and it is by far my very favorite of the 3. You work your whole life and finally I am painting  work that I am really proud of. I am almost a full time painter and I am looking forward for a time soon when I am FULL TIME and I believe these paintings will get me there. Of course they are more yummy in person and there is no way I can capture that on camera, but I included detail shots to help and if you click and then click again on any image you will see much more.
Love to hear what you think.

New Painting/Collage in Series




This is another of the new ones, if you want to know more about this piece read previous post. 20"x 16".
I included detail shots, but if you click and then click again on any image it will give you greater detail then these photos.
Always love to hear your thoughts.
I am hard at work doing more...
P.S. Redbubble update: Redbubble sent me a 50 dollar voucher to buy some of my own work to see how it looked. I thought that was very generous and my experience ordering on the site was very fast and easy, they did not ask for your first born child :-). I received a notice telling me that my stuff was on the way and given a tracking #. My cards arrived within a week of ordering and were in perfect condition. the cards looked lovely and are on nice card stock. I only ordered cards, so I can't say what the other product are like,  but I was most pleased with them from start to finish.

XOXO

This is it...




In my last post I told you I was finishing paintings I was very excited about, this is the first one. I am very excited about this because for two years I have been reaching for something unnameable and in these new paintings I am finally there! There are about 20-30 very thin layers of venetian plaster, oil, graphite, paper, most of which are taken from old ledger books and then I draw on them), and cold wax. Much scraping and sandpapering goes on with these, much rubbing with alcohol, they are very labor intensive and this piece took about 7 weeks of daily work, but it was a labor of love. As it is so hard to show you the details of this painting I took some detail shots for you, also if you click on the images and then click again you will get a better feel for it. This one is 20"x 16".
It will not be going to my ETSY shop or be on redbubble, these are paintings I am doing for a wonderful gallery that I am submitting them to for representation. Wish me luck :-). I will be showing more of these as I complete them, I have two more nearly done.
I always love to hear from you.
XOXO

Tiny Collage



I did this tiny 4"x 4" with 3" sides collage over a month ago, but just got a photo of it.

I am not putting all my paintings on redbubble, just select ones, and this is one of them, so for prints and cards and iphone covers go HERE

The original will be going into my ETSY shop at some point.

Happy day. xoxo

I am on REDBUBBLE, a link is now here

I found a wonderful site that prints images of your work and handles the shipping and sales. I have always wanted to offer cards and prints, but could never afford to do it myself. I am not sure my abstracts would translate well, but I am giving it a go with the ravens and some other select pieces. The site is called REDBUBBLE and if you click on the link it will take you to my page. If you have always wanted one of my ravens now they are affordable! I will be adding items and images all week so check back..
P.S. I can't get the search box on redbubble to work,  I am researching, but if any of you know how please inform.UPDATE: to do a search on redbubble you type what or who you are looking for and then hit enter on your key board. :-)
Always love your thoughts. xoxo
UPDATE 3/12/14: I am featured on redbubble's home page today, if you click on my raven it will take you to the page to buy. I have also linked to my page just click on rebubble in this post, or click on my redbubble link on the sidebar.
