$25.00

The weekend is almost here! I love weekends--lots of painting to do. I do have to go to Charlotte to pick up canvas on Saturday. I have a commission that requires a special canvas.

I will be starting a landscape this weekend. It will be posted by Monday if I like it.

I am in the mood to paint something different.....a departure from what I usually do, I just haven't decided what it is yet. Among the possibilities...portraits, horses....cows....you can tell I am getting homesick for Texas when I start painting western art.

Etsy meeting in Gastonia on Saturday! I can't wait! Panera Bread and lots of fun!

Well, better go for now.

I have finally made it back to the Studio to paint, so I started with something small. The website is up and running, eventhough Courtney does not like it. Courtney was home this weekend from Chapel Hill. She came home to pick up birthday presents and eat cake. She is turning 20---I am getting old!

I do plan on participating in the eBay boycott, my store will be closing February 14, 2008. This painting is available for purchase directly from me by clicking on the link at the title, or you can purchase from Etsy.com or ArtByUs.com. There are links to all my stores at www.torriesmiley.com

I will be painting more Martinis this week. I have been out of the studio for so long, there is so much to do.

Thanks for stopping by.
