PAINTING AND WRITING!

Yes, I've been painting here and there...just finished this little 4x4" oil on textured 1/2" thick fiberboard.  The sides are painted black...I haven't had time to put it in my website, but it will be added SOON!  I'm finding this little bit of simple painting is doing me a world of good! 

Things that have kept me busy..1. .looking for a part time job to suppliment my true calling...MY ART 2. entering shows  3. helping hubby with some computer work  4. and my newest venture...writing for different on line publishing companies...I started this over a month ago and am now happy to report I've had my first article published on YAHOO VOICES.  It is a fun little extra thing I've begun to help suppliment and to share information with others...SO, click on the link above and read my FIRST article...pass it along as you see fit...and if you want my articles sent to your e-mail as I write them, follow this LINK to my profile page and click on subscribe!  I am going to write mostly on creative topics as that is what I KNOW...

WHEW...I'm a little busy these days, but getting back into the swing of things and having a ball!!

HAPPY CREATING!

A LITTLE INSPIRATION

Yesterday I spent the day with a good  friend, who met me in Golden Colorado at Clear Creek and the historical museum for a day of picnic and sketching.  It was a great relaxing day full of nothing but fun!  I love to sketch on site, but I also love to find compositions in everything I see with my camera.  Below are a few bits of this and that!  Enjoy!

HAPPY CREATING!

"HANGING OUT" ORIGINAL OIL ON PANEL © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"Hanging Out"

4x4" oil on 1/2" fiberboard panel

mounted on black panel and framed in black

For purchase information please see my WEBSITE

I'm still on my little acorn kick...this little guy is hanging out at the end of his branch...just happily floating in the trees...Yep, I needed that little happy!  Painted in oil on texture...

Of course you realize that the frame IS square...I just forgot to zoom in I guess...which is the secret to making sure your edges show up straight by the way!!



I've also framed "Acorn" in the same manner...and, I'm seeing more in the future!



HAPPY CREATING!





"ACORN" working title...SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

I'm still limping along with my iPad, but not for long. Tomorrow I get my new computer! This little oil on panel has been calling to me. For days I've woken up feeling the urge to paint little acorn paintings, so who am I to argue with me! Stay tuned for the whole framed package...




HAPPY CREATING!

A LONG INTERMISSION...

It has been quite a journey these last few weeks! On June 28 my sweet father went home after a very long illness. My heart is broken. He was a most wonderful man. The family all gathered in Oklahoma to say goodbye to that earthly house we knew and be with my precious mother...and just hug each other for a time.

A long trip home after which I fell and sprained my ankle, got some flu bug, and found out my computer just QUIT. Sigh...so, I'm limping along, both literally and figuratively...all my photos still in my camera waiting for a new computer to load them in to...

Next week my new laptop should arrive and I will be able to get back in full speed...until then, please bear with me as I use my iPad to do the best I can!

Onward we go! HAPPY CREATING!
