Finishing up another exhausting art show weekend, this one a little more stressful than most.  It rained, hailed and was super cold all of Saturday.  Sunday was better, but still a very long weekend.

I did sell the above Frida.  I have shared it before, but not with her gloriously painted plaster frame. I love her and I will miss her. :'(

Over the last 2 months I was able to sell 100 calendars.  I am super thankful that they sold. Now, I have ordered another small batch for my next (and last) show on Friday and am celebrating with a little FLASH SALE in my etsy shop.

They will be on sale as well as my e-courses. This week only! Go check it out!

“Love Lives Here”
Acrylic on 10 x 10 framed panel
Original (sold) — Art Prints available HERE

“Do More of What Makes You Happy”
10 x 10 acrylic on flat artist panel
(sold)

Remember the painting I did for Birds, Blooms & Butterflies?  It’s on the sidebar and you can see it here too. Well, I decided to re-work it with some new words, a few different colors and just make it a little bolder and brighter than before.  Recycling or refinishing of sorts.

I love this saying, because it is exactly what I’ve been for the last 3 years, since I quit my nursing job.  It’s how I keep making art. That’s not to say that having an art biz is easy. It’s definitely not.  How well I do is all on me. But, doing what I love, with passion, gives me the drive to keep going. Through the exhaustion, stress and self doubt, I love what I am doing and it makes me so very happy!

I had these little cradled wood panels, measuring 3 x 5 x 1.5, and have been trying to think of something to paint on them for so long.

I finally decided to do vases of flowers.

I painted the flowers all around the edges, which I really like, and now want to do more. 🙂

I’ve been having a lot of fun making small art.  It’s my favorite thing to do.  I put on  some music or listen to a good book and start painting away.

I’ve decided to try to make some of this small art available to people who can’t come to my art shows in my online shop.  So the yellow purchase info button will take you there. I am also giving free US shipping, on the items in my online shop, until December 30th.

For international folks, please email me about shipping.

Thanks!
