It's the first week of August and I still cannot figure out where the first half of 2015 has gone friends. I have been unbelievably busy getting my new passion off the ground. I can spend all day in my studio painting, but then forget I must market my work as well. There aren't enough hours in the day. I'll share what's new since my last newsletter.
Dream Weaver, 12" x 12" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas
"Dream Weaver" was a wonderful surprise for me. I sat at my easel last week deciding what to paint. My blue paints seemed to call out to be used, and with no plan my brushes went to work and the result is this lovely, sculptural abstract. I hope you like it.
"Sunset Over Sangre de Cristo Mountains" 10" x 20" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas
I'm going through withdrawals from not visiting Santa Fe this summer so I just had to paint "Sunset Over Sangre de Cristo Mountains" as a reminder of how beautiful the mountains and sunsets are in New Mexico. The sunsets are truly magnificent.
"Faith" 10" x 20" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas
"Faith" was inspired by a birthday party at a dear friends's last week. She asked me to instruct a painting party at her home for several of our close friends. My sweet friend chose a cross she wanted everyone to paint (not this one). I must say everyone did a beautiful job and I really enjoyed teaching them. After that party I was inspired to paint "Faith" using a palette knife and my favorite colors, the colors of my soul.
Mini paintings
I started a new line of mini paintings as well. These will be framed with easel backs to make them perfect to place on your nightstand, bookcase or to brighten a garden window. They also make wonderful gifts.
Thanks so much for taking time to view my latest offerings friends. And remember, for each new painting there are also other products available with those images. Tote bags, tee shirts, coffee mugs and much more. Just visit my Fine Art America shop (click on FAA) to see all the new items.
Have a wonderful weekend and I'll see you again next week. Thanks so much for your wonderful support and encouragement. Blessings, Mary
