Life has been a little crazy this year for all of us. I love the way so many have found creative ways to make the best of the situation. My "paint group" who usually meets once a week to paint together and derive inspiration from each other, has had to meet via emails. Each week a member of the group came up with a challenge for the week; A theme or photos to reference for that week's painting. Some of the above paintings came from those challenges. Then a crazy thing started to happen in August, my paintings began selling at
Mountain Fever and Mad Dog Arts in Ouray. We had an overabundance of tourists in town this summer and that continued through mid October. So far, 14 of my paintings have sold!!! How exciting! Then I had to get busy painting to keep up, so I was not always able to experiment with the weekly challenge, but paint Ouray scenes instead. I am not complaining. It has been great and I love painting Ouray scenes.
Over the past few years, I have painted many small scenes: 6x6, 8x8 and 6x12. When
matted and framed, these small watercolor and ink "sketches" of our beautiful area of the world seem to fill a niche in the "Ouray Art Market" Who knew?? But I have never been able to make cards from these small paintings as they just would not "fit" right on the size card that I was using. But I finally figured out how to do it, and now I have all of these small paintings available as cards. They are 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" (thank you note size), and they are available for $3.50 each from me, Mountain Dog Arts, and Mountain Fever.
There is a "movement" to designate Sunday, November 29th as Artist Sunday to promote the purchase of local art for holiday gifts. I along with Mountain Dog Arts in Ouray am participating in that promotion. Special deals will be available. Contact me at:
bobbiejohnson@mac.com. for information.
