I’m a Fan of….My Husband’s Art and Studio

…thanks to Jez for hosting I’m a Fan of….https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2024/07/29/exploring-the-national-trust-for-scotlands-robert-burns-birthplace-museum-fan-of/

I love the joy and satisfaction my husband gets from painting, especially in the summertime when he can paint in the backyard studio. He can get as messy as he likes and he listens to his favourite tunes. Sometimes he even gets up and starts dancing. This past week he sold one of his paintings. I wired it for him and we hung it up to get it off the floor so it wouldn’t get damaged before it is picked up.

A Painting Update

…it’s been awhile since I last posted some of my artwork

Back in September I was finally able to display two of my paintings for a show that was suppose to take place last January. I had originally made three paintings for the show but one sold earlier in the year. I’m pleased to say that the two that were hung in the gallery at WAAC also sold.

These were all 16″ x 16″ x 1 1/2″.

I’ve just finished three more pieces for another show later this month. The show is called Small Gems and no piece can me more than 48″ all around. These three are all 12″ x 12″ x 1 1/2″.

….a little joy came into my life yesterday

Out of the blue I received an email from a complete stranger who had seen some of my art on the WAAC website. She fell in love with my piece, Memories of Nowruz, and wondered if I had sold it. When I told her it was still available she was delighted. When we exchanged information I found out that she lives about 15 minutes away from me. We arranged for her to come to the house and from a socially acceptable distance she could get a first hand look at the piece. Luckily for me the image on the website was true to the piece and she bought it on the spot.

We talked for a few minutes while the e-transfer was taking place. Like us she has lived in her home since the 70s and has no plans on moving any time soon. I really enjoyed speaking with her and later when I wrote to thank her she said she’d love to be on my mailing list for future shows. All in all it was a good day. Here is the painting that she bought.
