Painting Pleasures

Painting has provided me lots of pleasure. I enjoy the process and I enjoy the result.....sometimes. There is always pleasure when you make a sale. It means someone likes the painting enough to buy it and look at it in their home.  Another pleasure is when you enter a show and the juror selects your painting to be part of the exhibition. Friends and family attend  and enjoy your piece. The icing on the exhibition cake is being awarded a prize. That may not happen often, but one keeps striving.

I have found another modern day pleasure to painting and it is art licensing. This step adds functionality to your pieces and allows people worldwide to see your work. It also makes it possible to enjoy art in places other than on a wall. I have been fortunate to have a few companies that license my art. It is through these companies that I arrive at yet another pleasure; selling my art at retail stores. It is great to have seen my art available at Macy's, Bloomingdale, Wayfair, Amazon, Overstock,  and Bed Bath and Beyond. Enjoy a few below!

A Look Back!

The year 2013, was full of surprises. For one, I discovered that I enjoy seeing my art on fashion.  What better way to feel good all day than to look at your art as you look at yourself. I joined a company called Vividly and decided that it was way too much fun to stop.

As if that wasn't enough, through Vividly I found out about a contest for another fashion house in New York, Elsa and Me. To my surprise, my design was chosen and my dress is available on their site.

I also decided to make my art available to other companies and joined Kess Inhouse.This company offers home decor products. Through them,  I am able to offer my art on placemats, cutting boards and more.

Looking back is always great and inspiring, but looking forward is the only way to go. I want to sketch daily and further develop my art. This includes portraits that I have always feared.  Stick around in 2014 and see the new challenges I tackle.
