Hello Dear Art Lover
And the WINNER is...
Congratulations to Neala. She is the winner of my first PRINT GIVEAWAY. Neala is someone I met online and lives in Victoria. She is a yoga therapist and enjoys snow boarding and mountain biking. And, she is a super supporter of my art. I'll be sending your print out right away.
Needless to say, I've had a bit of brain workout. My head was hurting real bad. If I didn't have Joanna to take photos and Lise to navigate the ins and outs of the tech side, I think I would really have lost the plot. I didn't detect much eye rolling with my questions either. You might be asking how someone who had operated extremely complicated and precise equipment such as a linear accelerator could not know the basics of computers, but it's true. I am proof positive that old dogs really can learn new tricks.
Don't forget that when you order your first print you get 15% off your order. Just a little thank you for being here and supporting my efforts.
How are you continuing to keep yourself going these days? There's a lot of talk about self care but one of the things I do is indulge in a regular cocktail hour with my buddy Dee. Every week we talk life and art and where our next travel adventure will take us, while imbibing a bevvie. One of the places we haven't been yet is the Frick Gallery in NYC. It was fun to discover that they have a great feature calledCocktails with a Curator. Check it out and enjoy a martini while learning about art. www.frick.org
Please send me your ideas on your attempts to 'Stay Calm and Carry On' This pandemic sitch is just going on way too long.
Would you be interested in learning how I do a lot of my underpainting? Sometimes the results of the underpainting are visible and sometimes they provide a foundation to build upon. Sometimes they turn out quite lovely right at the beginning. The one painting I show you here is a result of a 'pour' of paint that I've left as is. The other one in the 'room app' is 'The Night Was Brilliant With Stars' which has some of the underpainting peeking through. It is the one I made for my PRINT GIVEAWAY. Please do let me know if you would like to learn how to have fun and make art with a 'pour'.
Til next time, thanks for supporting my small business. I do appreciate it.
YOUR HOME + YOUR STYLE + MY ART
Rock on,
Gail
