Snow Dunes

watercolor

landscape

I have my students working on fall and winter little paintings that are this size (4.5" x 7.5") and they frame up very nicely in a 9" x 12" frame.  For some of my students, this is the first time that they are framing something.  These are a great size for gift giving...

Gala Paintings lll

watercolor 3" x 4"
landscape

There are going to be 20 little paintings that are small....3" x 4" to 5" x 7" or there abouts. The chairman decided that the paintings were too much of a donation with all the other stuff that I am doing and giving, that she wanted me to keep the originals.  There will be colored copies of these in silver frames that will be part of the table decorations for the Chesterton Art Center's Nov. 1 gala in Chesterton, Indiana.  So these originals will be for sale for $20 matted, plus postage.  They would make nice little gifts with the holidays just around the corner.
