This week's pick is an unframed drawing of an orange bell pepper. It's done in ink and colored pencil and is about 30" x 24". Inexpensive to ship too. What a great gift this would be for any foodie. Be the first to email me and this original artwork can be yours for only $85. WOW!!

Christmas Show A Success!


What a grand time we all had yesterday at our ACME Christmas Art Show and Sale. Nearly everyone sold artwork. It was my first year at the Christmas show and honestly, I didn't expect much. I brought in my little sack lunch, planned out what artwork I was going to work on, and intended to treat the day like any other Saturday. So I was extremely surprised when people started coming in and out at a pace so steady that I had to ask someone to watch my studio so I could just take a bathroom break. I only had a chance to sit down for a few minutes the whole day. From 10-8 pm I was sharing my artwork with visitors and best of all, my sales from masks and unframed work totaled about $600. I finally had a chance to eat my sack lunch at about 9 pm when I got home. Ha ha. For anyone who didn't get a chance to stop by yesterday, I still have lots of affordable work including framed and unframed woodcut prints, silkscreen prints, collagraph prints, small oil paintings, leather ornaments and masks, t-shirts and totebags with my original designs silkscreened on them, and of course large scale artwork in various styles.

Cowgirl Mask

Wednesday, December 3, 2008

I just finished up the last mask commission - a cowgirl. Now, while this might sound like a small task, it was actually pretty limiting. I decided on a regular face with "make-up", added exaggerated eyelashes, and finished it off with some white fringe (which is kind of hard to see in the photo). The other face mask is just something for someone who wants a mask but doesn't want to cause a scene.
