CL, have you ever considered using some of your beautiful paintings and having them printed on notecards? I had a dear, sweet friend who I had worked with for 10 years in my art department and ended up living with us the last 5 years of her life who was a wonderful watercolor artist. She'd had a couple of her wildlife designs printed up and gave me a few but do you know, I cannot bear the idea of using them or giving them away now?
Anyone would enjoy some of your hand painted note cards of course, but if they were pre-printed and boxed maybe in assortments, they could make such lovely gifts for some of us to purchase...
(This is me just thinking how I could get my hands on some of your artwork without have to win it.) If they were available to a larger populace... I wonder what the costs would be to have them done? You've probably already looked into this, haven't you?
Actually I have, half way.
I have a few addresses forwarded from cpartist where she is selling some of her work.
I can print up my own stuff...alot has already been scanned, and all I have to do is have the Company re-format so I can get alot more little pics on a sheet than 1 big painting.
I figured a good 10 or 12 card assortment.
I have to unframe & send off the last 4 paintings to be scanned.
Giclee Prints are done digitally as you would scan & print anything..but their machines have far more pixels & use true watercolor inks.
The image can then be recorded on disc, and be re formated to any size lay up.
I have the Elk, Beach Ponies from last year & the Otters and Steelehead from the year to get scanned.
Just takes moolah & will have to waite til after the first of the year.
I still want to buy a beach ponies picture for the wall, and I'd like to see the elk and others. You are a wonderful artist!
I sooo want your icelandics and Buckeyes, but I need more room in the coop. How many chickens can you put in a 10X12 coop if they all have room on the roosts and free-range on 2 acres by day (unless it is stormy and they don't want to venture - then they get a 10X 24 run in addition to the coop)
