This and that.

My painting, New Years Eve In NYC, was selected as" January" for Massachusetts General Hospital's Illumination's Calendar for 2011. This has prompted me to get going on a few new designs for the holidays and an Autism holiday card as well. I am also working on a new commission for a couple in Cape Elizabeth, ME who just bought a beautiful old farm house with many lonely walls. After receiving many requests for how to frame my paintings in my Etsy shop I decided to offer this service for a very small fee. I actually enjoy framing.

New paintings coming soon.............

And Also With You

I never got a chance to post this new painting in my Etsy shop or blog about it. It was sold over the weekend in New York City at the art show. New York was very exciting, Saturday was a glorious day. Naturally, the day before the show, I realized that tents were not allowed due to the fact that the show took place on the sidewalks near Washington Square in Greenwich Village. My husband had to come up with an alternative display at the last minute. It wasn't exactly what I envisioned but served the purpose well.

The Botanical Queen

I adore art from the Renaissance period. I love the rich colors, beautiful clothing and landscapes. This is where my inspiration came for "The Botanical Queen. " She isn't based on anyone I know but she is contemplative yet peaceful. Although she is Queen, she chooses to pick her own flowers from the royal garden.

This new painting is 16x20 painted on linen and cotton. The sides have been painted so no frame is needed. For sale in my Etsy shop soon. Long Live The Queen.

Two new contemporary paintings

Some of my customers have requested that i do a large scale painting of  a rug design that I use often in my room portrait paintings.  Here is my first one.  The photo doesn't really capture the essence of this piece.  You really have to see it to  appreciate it fully.  It is rather large for me 22x28 on gallery wrapped stretched canvas.  I have painted the sides so framing isn't required.  no staples showing.  $149.00

Pretty Puppy Lady Girl

I decided to take a break today from painting and saw our yellow lab in deep thought. Abbey is the greatest dog ever. She is so smart and sweet. She completes our family. I've been meaning to write about her.
