Busy in the Studio

Things have been busy lately. I reworked my website and then decided what I had chosen was wayyyyy too busy and clashed with my artwork. Putting Paint Shop Pro brushes with swirls in my hands was too much of a good thing, I went crazy with those and put them on everything! So it's gone now and I have toned things down a lot and returned to a white background to once again make the artwork the focus.

Speaking of artwork, I have been getting a few emails from impatient collectors wanting first look at my new pieces. I will be sending out my usual announcements and will share them with you then. They, like Christmas, are coming! My oil paintings take considerably longer than my pastel pieces due to drying time in between layers, brush cleaning taking longer than hand washing etc!!

Ok, back to the studio then!
