Still unemployed and loving it

You would think that since I no longer go into an office every day I would be posting more on my blog. But I never seem to have time. Had an art show in November, no pictures...I just can't seem to remember to grab my camera. But did very well at the show. Paintings for the holidays under way and playing around with the idea of setting up an etsy site. And working part time at the frame shop re-learning how to mat and frame artwork. Doesn't pay much but get all the scrap matboard I want and can mat my own artwork for nothing or next to nothing. That's a pretty good perk.

Here is a little pear ACEO that I matted with a black velvet mat scrap. It only took me three times to cut the darn mat to fit right. But finally got it right.



And here are two paintings, both 6x6 oil pastel that are going to someone for Christmas.



The pear's I've been doing are very popular and if I'd had more on canvas at the art show probably would have sold them all but I only had one on canvas.

Hi Jonna! Glad you're enjoying a little bit of unemployment time!

Really like all three of these paintings. The colors are beautiful and I love the collage elements. xox
