2011...almost

2011...almost

It's looking as though my website should be finished by the end of November...cool!

In the meanwhile, I want to present a timely offer to those who may be interested.
I'm offering signed, limited edition poster/ collage calendars for 2011!

The cost for 1 poster calendar is $27. with free shipping.

I selected some of my favorite paintings to create two calendars of your choice...you can pre-order now and your calendar will arrive by December 17.

Peace and Love,

friends

So I had one of the most excellent experiences I've had in a long time. I reconnected with my friend Debbie! We were so close as teenagers, and haven't been in touch in over 26 years!!! It was a magical experience to be able to speak with her and catch up after all these years...I love her :)





Speaking of friends, I want to send you to my friend Ilyse's website. She sells the most exquisite soy candles you have ever seen or smelled! I've included some images...and of course I still don't know how to create a link in the body of this post so I'll just have to type in the address and hope for the best....

Like me, she's still in the process of having a new ecommerce site built, so if you want to shop, please visit her facebook page.

If anyone would be so kind as to advise me how to post links, that would be fantastic!

Peace and Love,
Susan

Patience...and Pink

I have always been the kind of person to "want it now!" Life can be painful when I live it from that place.



So, patiently I wait...I'm having to start all over on my new website. A few misunderstandings, and a now I'm having a new designer take over the project. Such is life :)



I suppose everything happens for a reason...right?

Autumn

 

Sometimes I like to go through my portfolio and review paintings I've done in the past...the colors from this one remind of Autumn. Transition...

Tallulah

I was commissioned to paint this. I found it to be very fun and challenging as it's not my usual style.

Hope you enjoy!

Love

I don't know why I titled this post "Love." Just came to me for some reason...
Thanks to all who leave comments on my blog. I'm sorry if I don't always respond, I'm having wrist pain, and it's really difficult to type right now, I hope you understand.

Love,
Susan

In progress....

 

My new improved website is currently under construction! I will be offering greeting cards, mousepads, and other cool stuff for sale...I'm using the images above for mousepads. Can't wait!

Monday

Since I didn't want the agony of actually "choosing" a winner, I assigned numbers to everyone, and some of you had multiple numbers/entries based on the little extra promotion, etc. Then I asked my son to pick a number...you get it, right?

So the winner is Ashley Ruth from this blog:
http://getzblogging.blogspot.com/

Congratulations Ashley! Please email me to claim your painting :)

Thanks everyone for participating in the giveaway! Since there could only be one grand prize winner, and I don't like disappointing anyone, I have a sort of consolation prize for everyone else who entered. A 5x7 print of the Peacock painting will be mailed to everyone who entered this giveaway. So if you want to claim this prize, just email me and provide me with your mailing address.

Stay in touch, I'll be having another giveaway in the near future!

Peace and Love,
Susan

Sunday

Entry for the giveaway will close at 12 midnight...I will announce the winner tomorrow.
Good Luck! (seems sort of stupid to wish everyone good luck...)

Thrilling!

You want to know what it is super addictive? Coming on here and reading all the flattering comments...really, I'm so distracted I don't want to paint. I haven't really been involved in the blogging community, I think I could get used to this, being adored and stuff :)

I wish you could all win! Truly, if I were rich and didn't have to support myself with my art, I would give lots of it away. Generosity is a good thing, right?

I'll have another give away real soon, if nothing else just to receive these comments. Thanks to all of you for the support! Good luck...

By the way, many of these images will be available in print as well. I'm having stuff printed on satin for pillows, upholstered headboards, etc. I'm thinking the peacock will be really swell on a pillow...

Peace and Love,
Susan
