Ok...Today I started framing. Whew. Last night I was cutting mats. Some people do not know how much work there is to being an artist. It is a good thing that we do what we love....enjoy.

Tonight I was cutting mats for all of these paintings. The chairwoman of the gala said it was too big of a donation to give the originals. So, I went and had copies made at the office supply store on card stock. They actually turned out pretty good just for a copy. So I made 20 mats for the copies and then 20 double mats for the originals. I will frame them all and hopefully I will sell the originals this holiday season....Get yours early. lol.

I will be so sore tomorrow morning from cutting these mats. What we do in the name of art...because this is what we do.

Today's winter painting has picked up some purples...one thing about these little paintings is that you can really play around with compositions and colors. Great way to experiment. I am using scraps of wc paper and some are even on the backs of demos that I did for my students. Enjoy!!

Still painting strong. I had a friend stop by via Skype to see me paint this one. It was a lot of fun painting it for him.

These little ones are hard to photograph...or maybe it is me. lol

Moving right along with my mini series. I have decided for sure that I will do 10 snow dune scenes and 10 fall country/barn scenes. Once I chill you off, I will warm you up. Keep coming back. Have a great week.
