Here’s another pastel of my latest muse – the ocean. I miss the beach. We have lake and river “beaches” here, but nothing beats the cool, salty air of the ocean.

A reminder of my 5 year anniversary painting giveaway. If you are interested in being entered into the drawing, please leave a comment on my blog.

Thanks to those of you who’ve commented privately or on the blog. It’s so great hearing such encouraging words. I’m feeling the love!

The drawing will be done on July 19. Good luck!

Until next time…

I’ve been thinking of the ocean and the beach lately. I can’t believe that we’re already halfway through July! Time is flying by. So much so that I didn’t even realize that my Blog’s 5th Anniversary came and went on June 19. Five years is a big deal for me, so I am kind of bummed that I missed it. No need to wallow… onward!

So much has happened in the last 5 years. My work has been sent to at least 32 US States (they really love me in Texas and Nebraska!), and several international locations – France, Scotland, England, Australia, Canada, Ireland.

I’ve made many friends in fellow artists and art collectors alike.
I’ve had 2 babies, and my first baby isn’t much of a baby anymore. Even with all the day-to-day busyness, art has been more present than it has ever been in my entire life. I am so grateful for that.

Last year I did a free painting give-away to celebrate, and I would like to do the same this year. So, for the next week or so (until July 19th) anyone interested in being entered into the drawing, please leave a comment on my blog letting me know. You can leave it on this post, or any post you’d like. There are lots, so check out the archives.

Thank you all for sticking with me. I appreciate the encouraging comments and support.

Cheers!

Until next time…
