After the Dishes are Done

Hey Friends,  Just added this to my Etsy store.  It is a giclee on canvas and embellished with crackle paste and string gel.  This is on a wrapped 10" x 8" canvas and it is varnished. 
This treatment sort of gives it a framed/matted look.  You can see some extreme close ups in Etsy.
This would make a sweet gift for any female on your list.

POPPIES & APPLES

Hey Friends, I'm still listing stuff in my Etsy shop that I found while cleaning the studio! My sale bin might get really big - Go check it out.

I can't remember exactly when I painted this-probably 3 years ago. It's a cute, bright, happy liitle gal. Would make a nice gift for that little country girl you know, or that teacher, or that antique collector. You could probably name a dozen more types.

I'm going to add this to Etsy now and then I need to list some paintings on Design Style Guide. This is a fairly new site that markets to designers and decorators. http://www.designstyleguide.blogspot.com/ If you're an artist you might want to take a look.

EVENING ROSES

Hey Friends, I'm back with another little orphaned Painted Photo Collage. I found it in a box of more artwork when cleaning on my studio. There is more paint than photo on this one. I thought I would give my camera a try with this last shot. Trying to give you an idea of what it might look like in a home, instead of using my scanner. This piece is 6"x4" and the frame comes with it. I like this particular frame with this painting, so I don't want to separate them.

I spent the majority of my day scanning, resizing, photomerging and such, all the work I'm going to be listing on Etsy in my SALE bin. I have to get up pretty often and pull some hair out or kick the cat! (kidding)

FLAMINGO

Hydrangea's on your dresser, don't you love that? Add a flamingo! - what more could you want? Maybe a mint julep and a winning lottery ticket.

I've been so wrapped up in painting that I forgot to post a new painting on Thursday. In case you are interested, there is an art festival coming soon!. The Roanoke Sidewalk Art Fest on June 7 & 8. It's held on the streets of downtown Roanoke in front of the new art museum. The new museum is truly something to behold!! Hope you can visit. I'm in tent #16.

Thanks for stopping by and to bid on this painting CLICK HERE SOLD

VINTAGE TABLECLOTH w/ COSMO'S

A few little cosmo's - last of the beauties this past fall. I took a couple of photo's then and just got around to painting this last week. My mom is a packrat that saves fabric, bed covers, tableclothes and more. This is from her stash. For purchase info click HERE.

"LANTERN & LILLY'S"

This piece of original art has pure gold leaf in the background. Gold leaf will not show up on a computer monitor but it is a really nice glowing surface. I love chinese paper lanterns and the mini-umbrellas and of course, the lillys. For purchase info on Ebay please click here.

GARDEN ARRANGEMENT #2

Garden Arrangement #2 is a companion piece to the previous post. I have several water cans so you will see them often in my work. Save on shipping when purchased together. To purchase on ebay please click here.

GARDEN ARRANGEMENT #1 5x7

Garden Arrangement #1 was created because I had a bunch of cosmos and I wanted to use the water bucket in a painting. I liked this piece so I thought a companion piece would be nice. It's listed next. Purchase info on ebay-please click here.
