Day Four Blooming March

Blooming March Challenge

Day Four

When I set out for this challenge I had a week to prepare.

The first thing I did was see what photo references I had and to find whatever was missing. (Hint, I have never seen a Jasmine Blossom ever in my life)

Second, I cropped and cut each chosen reference so I knew exactly what I was painting.

(For those whom believe that art just happens, this is a lie)

This is part of the process that no one ever sees or mentions. People always ask an artist how long did that painting take? I personally love it when artists answer "about ten to fifteen years".

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
