Hey Friends, Several years ago I opened a store on Ebay. I have recently learned from a generous gift from Jack White (he is a Famous artist and author) that I was indeed to impatient. It takes forever and a bazillion days to have any success on Ebay. He created a fictional character to paint pictures to auction on the giant. And he had good success after about a year. !! A whole year !!
So I'm giving it another go. First time I only lasted about a month or so. And was totally ignorant about the words to list, etc. Hopefully, I have learned from Mr. White (I mean, I hope he's not pulling my leg).
I'm sure I've mentioned sometime in the past that I have a boatload of paintings in my studio to do SOMEthing with. So this might be a good way to get going. I'm starting each piece at $.01.
Yes, that's the advice I've been given, so ONE penny it is.
Another thing I'm doing with some of this overstock is sanding and re-gessoing to paint MORE. I shall be participating in Leslie Saeta's challenge again this January. That's 30 paintings in 30 days.
I'm hoping I can list these in my DPW shop and connect to Ebay just like I did for my Etsy shop.
Won't that make my life a bit easier?
So Click here if you want to see what my Ebay listing looks like. (Fingers are crossed)
Happy Trails
Travel Well

LITTLE BLACK BOOK

Hey Friends, Thought I would show you one of my all time favorites. Why is it one of my favorites? I think mostly, it is the colors. Yeah, I'm a color freak. This one is bright, but soothing or calming. This feeling is the way most gardens/landscapes hit me. Maybe I'm a bit lazy but I love to sit in a garden or patio and just take it all in. The colors, the smells, the breeze, the sounds (birds,water,children,dogs,airplanes). If I'm left alone, reading fits in nicely. I ALWAYS want to take a nap outdoors too, but the bugs won't allow it. AND if you can imagine, someone comes along and fires up that big shiny grill and then the smells of burgers and tomatoes hit ya. I painted this at my sisters house. I used her furniture, etc. but the colors are mine. This is the way I wanted her place to look. I listed it in my ETSY shop and DESIGN STYLE GUIDE.
Now I'm gonna call my sis and tell her to look at my blog. I'm hoping she will get the hint. This is the perfect day to invite me over for dinner!
Happy Trails.
