weekly summer print sale: week 3 "lavender fields forever"

Based on a picture, this oil pastel depicts my friend's daughter frolicking in lavender fields in the south of France, where they live.

I love doing interpretations from pictures, especially of children. Many of my paintings are inspired by their sweet, curious nature. Be sure to keep that in mind for your future art gift needs. :)

Weekly Summer Print Sale: Week 2, "Come Sit a Spell"

Thanks to everyone who subscribed to the newsletter. I really appreciate your support and am excited to share this part of my life with you all. 

Week 2's print holds a lot of meaning for me. Inspired by a picture, I created this art not knowing where it would lead. Emily, a friend of a friend, was a little girl in the last stages of an awful, agressive cancer. During her last days, she told her parents to "tell them all that I like getting mail." I sent her the original of this painting as a gift. No longer able to travel to the sea, this would be the closest she would get in the final days of her life. Emily passed soon thereafter and this painting will forever remind me of the grace and strength she showed during her short, difficult life on this earth. Looking at this, I imagine her, forever young and beautiful, sitting in one of those chairs enjoying the view, free of pain and illness.

Introducing Weekly Summer Art Deals

For each of the next 12 weeks, I will feature a BOGO deal (buy one/get one) on a print from my classic Summer Series.

Week 1: Cool Chick

Each of my prints come in a handmade sewn decorative paper sleeve ready to give or keep. This particular print would make the perfect gift for yourself, your sister, your mother, your neighbor, your babysitter....you get the idea. Admit it, you just thought of THE cool chick in your life that you'd love to gift this to. And the best part is, you get one too! It's like a grown up version of the Best Friend charm. :)

I may be biased but Art really is one of the most meaningful gifts you can give and receive.

series: ordinary objects

I never got around to posting proper pictures of my latest series: Ordinary Objects.

As with all of the pieces I share on this blog, these are available for purchase unless otherwise noted. I aim to price my art so that all can enjoy. Feel free to contact me for further info.

If I may say so, I think the utilitarian nature of these would make wonderful Graduation & Father's Day gifts. Art is forever.
