Art. I have done some,

 I keep forgetting to post the art I have been doing.

I did a whole series of Watercolors in preparation for the Watercolor class that I taught here at the store.

Here's a tiny sketch I did as a sample for the pen testing project we have going on at the store.

I wanted to recycle some old flash cards, and customers love to try out the wonderful writing impliments we carry, what a perfect match.

I hadn't done pen and ink for a while...then again this was really just a doodle.

I will try to post the watercolors soon, so you won't think I am just sitting around not doing art!!

Fall Foliage Open Studio Maps!

Fall Open Studio Maps are available now!
(click here to see a copy!)
My studio Number should be easy to remember, since it is 109, and I live on route 109!
Here's the page I am actually on:

Monoprints Everywhere!

This week I have printed over 60 monoprints.

This means I will have approximately 6-12 that are good enough to frame or sell if I am lucky...

and a bunch of scraps I can recycle into business cards I think...

Just didn't want to let the week go by without posting that I AM working on art!
..more soon!

Monoprints

Well, I know I haven't written for a bit, but I have done some art since the Plein air Fest...


Grape leaf



mostly monoprints. Here's a sneak peek at one of them...

I have several more to do tonight.
It looks easy, but for every 12-20 I print, there are only (usually) about 2 or 3 worth framing...
(That uses a lot of really nice paper, and so my note paper pile is looking really cool!)

One from my last session was really nice, and I have already framed it.
The catalog of art is coming along as well... up to 50 peices of art so far for the Open Studio show.

We pick up the maps for Open Studio Thurs Aug 18th, so I should be able to provide a link to the maps soon.
