Last remaining wall went up a couple of weeks ago in the studio. Finally my studio feels closer to completion. (Although next year's project will be adding a ceiling and solar panels) Currently I am organizing the studio....basically figuring out where to put my supplies. There is nothing more frustrating to know you have a particular paint brush but you can't put your hands on it.
In between organizing, I have been working on new paintings. I have to admit.....it has been a struggle. I decided to go into a different direction then oils. I have been using charcoal, watercolors and pencil.
Since my studio feels like it is located in a forest, it was only natural to be influenced by my surroundings.
My goal is to create original paintings; have giclees made from them and sell the giclees on Etsy. I haven't set up an Etsy account yet, because from what I gather you really need at least 36 images. I am no where near that, but at least I have started.
Today I did send off for two giclees. I am excited to see how they turn out. (They are considered test runs)
Also in the fall, two artists and myself will have a Yard Art Sale. Basically in my front yard we will have tables and art to sell for one weekend. I am looking forward to letting go of some older works.
Check out my newest paintings.
