Back to work!!

First off I 'd like to wish everyone Happy Holidays.After a weekend of beer and turkey I've finally dragged myself back into the studio.I 've finished a large 30" x 48" abstract and I'm working on a 40" x 60" and a 36" x 36".I'm hoping I get at least one of them done before New Year's eve.

It's almost Christmas!

The year's coming to an end and it's time to take a holiday from the easel. I've always believed that even artist's can become worn out and it always helps to give your creative side a break. For the rest of the holidays I'll probably prep a couple of canvases but I won't do much. Enjoy life and you'll feel rejuvenated when you return to the studio.

Words of encouragement

One of the best things about selling work online is the ability to communicate with the collector. I think it's great when someone opens their package and sees an even more beautiful piece than they imagined.It's like opening a Christmas present! Here's what one of my collectors recently wrote-" I was very surprised when I received your painting today of the Little White Flowers. I am a member of the Cleveland Museum of Art and do not buy works " because they match my colors" I like the textures.Please continue to paint with much passion."

Imagekind

I've recently joined imagekind with the intention to offer prints of some of my work. I've always believed in the importance of buying original artwork,but I believe there's still a place for prints.

Some of my larger canvases are either too large or too expensive and a smaller giclee style print is the best option for them. Everything is done on their end from printing to framing and even shipping. I'll keep you posted on how everything goes. Here's the link to my images(I'll be adding a couple hundred of images). http://cenarte.imagekind.com/

I was lucky enough to obtain permission to sell a series of florals I painted for one of the galleries I work for. They are a sophisticated palette with extensive use of texture and mixed media.The only thing is that I have to keep the prices similar to the gallery's.They retail for $950usd and I have them in my store for $750usd so it's still a great deal.
