ANOTHER WINNER!!

"Aspen 4x4" is acrylic and paper cast done on a fiberboard panel with slots on back for hanging.

I'm so happy to announce the winner of my one year anniversary give-away is Kate Cissell! Kate has been following via e-mail and has always been so good to comment on about every post I make. So, although she does not have a blog (yet...working on her, ha) she does participate! I have mentioned before that though I wait until the count on my followers shows a number to draw I still include all my e-mail followers in the drawings. This one didn't matter as far as numbers go as it was for my anniversary...but I did count her comments these past couple of days. CONGRATULATIONS KATE!!

So, when Kate chooses from the offerings I will let you know which is gone. TO ADD to the choices is this latest little 4x4 which I lovingly call "Aspen 4x4". It was an experimental piece using the very small aspen leaf paper casts. I enjoy making the casts, and am still playing with where they belong in life. This was fun..., but not sure you can see the added texture the leaves add to the piece in the photo.

Speaking of my little contest choices I just want to remind you that soon I will be opening an ETSY or ETSY like shop where they will be put up for sale. I will still have contests, but they may sell as well...so new things coming! I needed a place for my "eye candy" to go that was more appropriate than a category on my website.

So, HOPEFULLY I will get the large aspen piece completed today, which is where I'm off to at this moment! HAPPY PAINTING to you all and I am SO glad for each and every one of you!!
