A Winner!!

Congratulations to Awtemnymf, who won the black cat painting in this weekend's drawing!

There's MUCH to do today, including making applesauce, harvesting the last of the summer herbs, and cutting and hanging lots of lavender to dry! And painting, of course - I'm hoping to finish a couple more Halloween items in time for shipping before the big day....

So off I go! Back again later with photos of new work...In the meantime, have a magical and *creative* day!!

♥ Carolee

Crafty's Cuppa Coffee said...: Oh My! I followed your link over here to say Thank You for joining my little blog- Crafty's Cuppa Coffee...but I had NO IDEA who you were! I sqeeled with glee when I sw your header! I have loved art FOREVER!(Or at least since I first saw it!)

I even have sme of your images saved on my computer (for inspiration ONLY! I would NEVER publish ther artists without their permission!I'm an artist too!)

But yeah...I forget where I found them, but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your paintings & boxes& such! And they (the photos)have provided me with endless artistic stimulation &inspiration!

So I am very happy tht you found & joined my little blog- and I also joined yours.(I only wish I had done so in time for the fun giveaway!-although I'm pining away fr one of your Trick or Treaters silloette peices!)

I look forward to perusing through your older posts & having you visit my blog again in the future.

Maybe I can pick up some of your tips & tricks, as I too am an artist (although a starving one! LOL) and am currently trying to get my ETSY store started. So I can use all the help I can absorb from my more succesful peers!

Okay...rambings over 4 now!(Oh- and I do hope your John's surgery goes well- and he will be in my prayers for healing.)

Take care

Commissions

I accept a limited number of commissions each year, on a very selective basis, with the understanding that the painting process can be a walk down an unknown path - as much for the artist as for the commissioner. I work best, and most successfully when creating freely, and with minimal direction, and find that most pieces evolve of their own accord - leading me on a sometimes unexpected, but always magical journey.

If you are comfortable with this, and interested in a commissioned piece, please drop me a line at carolee@kingofmice.com for terms and time frames. :)
