Another Juried show

OK - I don't usually toot my own horn, but I am so psyched to have gotten ino this show. I was picked for one of 65 works from 165 submissions in the Regional Art Show at the Rome Art and Community center in Rome, NY.

I know - Italy would have been more impressive, but hey maybe another time :)

Shown is the piece that I submitted.

VAST Christmas in July!

ETSY VAST Team (Visual Artist Street Team) will be having their Christmas in July sale starting July 15 and running through July 25. Members are encouraged to mark a couple of original paintings on sale. We will be posting our sale items on the VAST blog starting on July 15: http://vastgallery.blogspot.com/

I have created a Christmas in July sale section in my shop here:

I always try to do my Christmas shopping early - here is a way to start yours. I have bins of stuff I have picked up for great sale prices already this year for gifts. Some are earmarked for a special someone - others are for an unexpected gift need. All were purchased for at least 50% off. I am such a sale hound.

The picture shown is part of a set of 4 color studies that are almost abstract in subject. The set is on sale for Christmas in July!
