A Painting Sale!

I have a little special announcement...

Next week, from the 22nd through the 25th, I'm hosting a big Painting Sale in the store! This is, officially, the very first sale I've ever done on original art....and it's a doozie of one.
20% off *every* original painting--including pieces from my latest "Endangered" series! On some of the larger and more expensive paintings, 20% off is a whopper of a discount. Truly.

Special sales are a bit rare in my neck of the woods, so I hope that everyone who's had a keen eye on a painting for a while will be able to come and check it out. All the prices will be changed early Tuesday morning to reflect the sale, so you won't have to wait for a new invoice or any of that time-wasting mumbo jumbo to snag your treasure.

Alrighty, that ends the "official self promotion broadcast". In other, random news...

A couple years ago, I was wearing a white skirt while doing some window painting at work and, as any smart individual could have predicted, I managed to drip paint on it. Permanent, hot pink, window marker paint. I washed and bleached it to no avail and promptly threw it in the "mend" pile to fix at a later date.
Well, some fabric scraps from my quilt project, tiny colored beads, and steady handstitches were all it took to transform it into a wearable article of clothing once again. Hoorah for crafty cleverness!With the beautiful Spring weather, I'm looking forward to wearing it out and about on my coffee runs.Happy Sunday, everyone!

Avian

Good day, ladies and gents!

In celebration of reaching 400 sales in my Etsy shop, anticipation for the Spring season, and anxiousness for the inevitable upcoming tax session (oi vey), I'm hosting a print sale!
Yup--'tis true. Purchase any 2 prints (except for Ltd. Editions) and get a 3rd totally free. Just let me know in the "Message to Seller" box when you checkout which free print you'd like. I'm hosting the sale until the end of the month--that is to say, March 31st (Tuesday).

I also right this very second added a new original painting to the shop that I finished last night:

"From Across His Lake Kingdom, He Called To Her" acrylic and old sheet music on hardboard, painting is 4x6", framed is 5x8.5" {sold}

The colors on this piece are so rich and vibrant, that my camera and I had a brief battle trying to get that teal to look right. It still looks considerably more greenish-teal-peacock in person though. Little badges and medals seem to be adorning a lot of my animals and figures lately...

Completely unrelated, other than the fact that it's also bird-themed, I took some snapshots of a dead bird near my door last week.
Despite being a good 2 days dead, he provided a nice sketching session for me and then promptly disappeared the next morning (I assume by a desperately hungry raccoon).
Well, I have some more work to plug away at. Enjoy your weekends! I'm hoping for a glimpse of sunshine...
