So, here is my first official giveaway, and I think it's a rather awesome first! The winner can select from any of the paintings listed in this post.
I have but one concern and that is shipping outside of the US. I've noticed many bloggers limit their giveaways to inside the country, no doubt due to shipping costs. I read some dos and dont's on giveaways and was advised not to charge shipping. The thing is, I want to keep this open to international readers. All I ask is if the winner is outside of the US, please be willing to pay for the shipping and customs. Another option is I will pay for shipping if the winner outside of US is willing to accept a fine art print, or satin print (less expensive to ship) rather than one of the large original paintings. So please keep this in mind when entering the giveaway :)
Sorry to complicate things...

Your paintings are so beautiful. I'm going to try my hand at painting, but I'm very intimidated to even start! My Great-Grandfather was a fabulous artist and I'm hoping that maybe just a teeny bit is in my blood...hey, is 57 too old to start?? You'd think by this age I would know if I had any talent!
P.S...I added your button to my blog! Thanks for such a great giveaway chance!
your work is amazing! i'm now a follower.
I absolutely love your work. I'm very much a girly girl and love your use of pastel/light colors. I would love to have one of your pieces in my home.
