Framed!

"Princeton Barn"
12" x 9"
(framed watercolor on aquabord)
Sold 

I did some framing over the weekend and decided to share the fruits of my labor.  "Princeton Barn" is framed in a beautiful plein air frame from Randy Higbee's collection.  The other three, shown below are framed in Ampersand's black floater frames.

I am happy to announce that "Princeton Barn" has found its "forever home" (many thanks to my newest collectors) and now "Truro Light" is looking to find its new home.  I'm going to hang onto the Amsterdam paintings for shows, but if you are interested in "Truro Light" you can get a better view of it at my DPW Gallery.

I managed to finish this little ditty tonight.  I think it's a cute little painting for a kitchen and would look great in a contemporary floater frame.

Updating

"Cape Cod Roses"
Framed UV Protected Giclee
outer dimensions:  11" x 7"
$65

Click here to purchase.

I spent a lot of time over the past few days working on my website and updating my online presence at storenvy and DPW.  I am now offering framed prints of my work.  The best part is that they are UV protected giclees, archivally mounted so that they needn't be placed under glass and look like the original paintings on aquabord (like "Cape Cod Roses" above -- this is a photo of the actual framed giclee). The prints are very lightweight and easy to ship, and a fraction of what the originals sell for.  I only have two to offer right now, but am planning to get a few more together.  I'm hoping I can do some serious marketing for these this winter.

I also put up a couple new card images and giclee images for sale and I have a new shipment of 2017 calendars due in this week.

The new 2017 wall calendars are on their way!
$20

I struggle with keeping up on my marketing and am always vowing to do better.  And when I'm pressed for time, I usually choose to paint instead of market.  Perhaps someday I'll strike a workable balance.  There's always hope, eh?   :)

Have a great week!

`Tis the season for gourds!  I'm hoping that this little ditty will soon find its forever home.  I just love this painting if I do say so myself.  It comes in a simple blonde wood frame ready to hang.

Thank you for viewing my work and enjoy your weekend!

Throwback Thursday - "Parlor Afternoon"

"Parlor Afternoon"
19" x 11" (image size)
(watercolor on paper)
$700

Click here to purchase.

I still really like this painting but it is need of a forever home.  It was completed in February of 2014 and is from a photograph I took at my friend's house.  It was a peaceful afternoon with beautiful sunlight that filled the room.  The rich tones of the wood floor and chair were fun to paint.  And I'm always happy to render the folds in fabric.

If you are interested in purchasing this painting -- it comes matted in a slight off-white mat - about 2 inches wide, and finished with a lovely wooden frame like the image shown.  This painting is on paper so it is matted and framed under glass.  A payment plan is available for this painting, just contact me for the terms.

Have a great night!

The Attorney's Door

"The Attorney's Door" - 18" x 24" - watercolor on aquabord - $1,850

So I finally got around to taking a few photos of some of the work that I finished at the end of 2015 that went into a show at Palmer Public Library in Palmer, MA.  This is one of those paintings.  I'm excited to paint a little larger this year and this painting was a good start.  The subject of the painting is the lawyer's office at Old Sturbridge Village in Sturbridge, MA.  The Village is a great place to visit and I find it extremely inspiring.  It speaks to my soul.  :)

This paining comes framed just like the image below.  I think it's a lovely piece if I do say so myself and is quite nice in person.

This is the actual painting all framed and ready to hang!

Thank you for stopping by!

It's been a little hectic around here with some family projects and appointments, but all is well.  I just haven't found time to finish paintings and post.  But I'm still painting.  It brings me such joy and peace to put my brush to paper.  

Wishing you a great day full of joy and peace.  Thank you for stopping by.

I struggled with this one (just like the last one) . . . but managed to finish it up just before I headed off for dinner with my husband's brother, sister-in-law and two nephews for a fun evening.  Those little boys crack me up.  One of them had me scratching his ears like dog, to which he responded:  "aaaah, that's the spot."  Ha!

I'm back now -- uploading my images and ready for bed.  Thank you for visiting.

I am hopefully going to turn these fruit paintings into much larger ones -- full sheets.  I love the impact of VERY larger than life images. These little paintings are serving as practice. So far I've done three -- I think they would make a lovely collection in someone's kitchen, don't you?  The images below serve as examples of what these paintings could look like framed.

Thank you for viewing my work.

Another short post today as I've been trying to keep up with my painting and gardening. The painting is going well . . . my gardens . . . ummmm . . . let's just say, they're getting there.  :) The image below is of a "virtual frame" just to illustrate what this painting could look like framed. This painting seems to appeal to my "early American/antiquing" friends. (notice I didn't say "antique friends!)  :)  Hope you like it as well.

I'm off to bed now. Thank you for stopping by.
