YES...summer is a busy time for all of us...artists are teaching workshops, doing outdoor shows, painting (duh)...and all the regular things that come with summer...trips, family reunions, babies coming (tee hee...that's me)...I'm happy to say that I've been working on a couple of commission pieces. This one on my board is another one like "Aspen in Collage" that I did a couple years ago...the first one sold, so of course someone wants another one! HA. I am careful to repeat my work...I want it to be enough like the one that attracted the buyer in the first place, but to still have it's OWN identity. For this one, I've kept the colors mostly the same, and even the tree placement similar, but there are subtle leaf stamps in the background of this one and the leaves will be a bit different paper...After this I have another commission of Mt. Evans Panorama...I'm already planning my next new piece as well...FUN!
This summer has been fantastic for sales...YEA!...so I'm saying goodbye to these guys and dolls...but I've already got more up my sleeve!
I'm beginning to feel like a broken record..."OUR VISITOR LAST NIGHT"...WAS..."A BEAR"...yeh, yeh Saundra...what's new...I KNOW...but I'm tickled to get their pic in the daylight...our latest little one was after the birdseed that my husband THOUGHT he'd hidden well in a deck box...but this guy opened it, politely closed it and proceeded to eat it all...ha...you'd think hubby dear would learn...but he loves his birds...so I suspect we'll have more visits...I just hope they don't come when I have the backdoor open and freshly baked something to entice him/her! WHEW!
HAPPY CREATING!!

Wonderful paintings, as always! I love the photos of your visitors, too! We live in a forest with wildlife, but I haven't gotten any great shots like you have! Beautiful pictures!!!
Thanks Deb...I say...if you want them...put out sunflower seeds! lol!
No surprise to see these paintings that have sold. Each is beautiful, Saundra!! And commissions too? You are doing something magical because so many of the artists I follow have been bemoaning sales of late. Congrats to you, my friend. Now, about that bear! What an adorable beast! I know they can be dangerous, so please stay safe though!
