Afternoon Sun

This one took a few tries. 
Some come to be, easier than others. Not this one.
I was able to get the drawing easily and after that it was a tug-of-war. 



"Afternoon Sun"
10" by 10"
oil on canvas


The greens were either too green or too dark. 
The yellows were too yellow or too dark.
The highlights were too much or not enough.
Even the background was the wrong tone.



But I think I got it in the end.

You've Got Mail

I managed to take photos the other day before I sent off a 6" by 6" panel. I thought that a few might be interested in how I try to make sure that you're artwork gets to you unscathed.  Before I do any wrapping, I make sure that all the information is on the back of your purchased art piece. Title, medium, size, Artists name (because my signature is impossible to decipher). Also I print an inventory number which will look something like 026.2018. 1. I wrap all boards/canvases in wax paper. There will be no smudging on my watch. 2. Bubblewrap comes next as I do not want corners dinged.    3. Tissue paper is the third wrap. This is a gift for you or someone you love and I  want you to feel like it's a present when you open it. 4. Inside your envelope you will find:  A Thank You card - because it's important for you to know that you are appreciated.  Two business cards for you to share with others Your invoice and receipt  One
