Flow Blue with Lemons

I had a customer originally purchase Flow Blue with Lemons at my Etsy.com store. She then commissioned the other three paintings to complete a set of four for her dining room. These were all painted on 8" x 10" gallery wrapped canvas to be hung with or without framing.

I received an update from Flourish Boutique and Gallery. I have included a copy of the newsletter at the bottom of the blog. Check out the pictures in the newsletter and see if you can spot my paintings!

Well, off to the studio.....remember those landscapes I have been promising!

Thanks for stopping by,

I am exhausted!! Courtney is home and there is something going on all the time. I am having trouble finding time to paint. There is so much laundry! The cooking and the cleaning that I can usually avoid is definitely here for the holidays! Miranda has been taking over my art room....she gets into my stuff!!! Sure, she was in the Fine Arts Program at UNC....but it is MY STUDIO---well now, that's off my chest, I feel better now.

This is my newest painting and I am quite proud of it. I had a collector in Finland ask me to paint more lemons.....so I did! I bought a big bag of lemons and got busy. Ideas of what to paint for me is the hardest thing. Thanks Sari for the suggestion....I hope you enjoy the series of lemon paintings to come.

Lemons and Blue Bowl is available for purchase in my eBay store, Etsy.com, and ArtByUs.com.

Tonight I have to finish the family Christmas cards, tomorrow we are making the gingerbread house. Hopefully, I can sneak painting in here and there...

Thanks for stopping by and your continuing support!
