This painting is on its way to the Grand Bohemian Gallery in Saint Augustine, Florida! I have shipped off five paintings to two separate galleries in the last week. I am still way behind on promised work…

Things to Come (Shipped)
I framed and shipped two new acrylic paintings to The Grand Bohemian Gallery in Saint Augustine, Florida. This painting is 16”x20” on cradled board finished with a floater frame. i will post a video of the larger painting this weekend.
Starts and Ends
I was pleased to learn this painting was sold through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. Great gallery, I am happy to be working with them.
Ocean Song
I framed this new painting with a black floater frame. This is one of two paintings I will be shipping to the Grand Bohemian Gallery in St. Augustine, Florida.
Two for Sandpoint
I was pleased to sell these new paintings to a local collector. Apparently social media is still working! She stumbled across my Facebook site a month ago and decided she needed some of my art. It was nice avoiding the shipping charges!
Dawning (SOLD)
I was happy to hear this painting was sold through Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. Typically I hear about sales when a check shows up in the mail… the rare time a trip to the mailbox is rewarding.
Beyond Today (SOLD)
I was pleased to learn that this painting was sold through Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. Really top notch gallery.
Western Glow
A newly completed commission, arranged through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina. Some very sweet art collectors have been patiently waiting for me to finish this one!
This is an unusual size so I had the board custom made. In the past I have built my own boards but it is more time away from painting.
Color study giveaway!
November 1st I will have a drawing to giveaway this color study to one lucky subscriber on my Instagram account. I am considering doing this every month if it goes well. Subscription is 99¢ a month.
This is all an experiment. I have found making a living as an artist requires a lot of hustle and alternate income sources. I would love to hear from other artists… how do you make ends meet?
Drift of Thought (SOLD)
I was excited to hear that this painting sold through Horizon Fine Art Gallery as soon as it was unpacked!
I have decided to take next year off from the solo show grind. I am going to send work as it is made to a handful of galleries I enjoy working with. Holding onto work for a show is exciting, to see a large collection hanging together. Shows are also stressful and an all your eggs in one basket proposition. My new plan affords me the freedom to make small collections with no specific goal or destination.
