I have been very busy working on The Paper and squeezing in as much time to paint as possible. I've gotten a lot better in my opinion. Currently, I'm in a little bit of a tangle though. My last two or three paintings were good, but I made changes to them and now they need even more work. I can't decide whether to set them aside or try to tie up the loose ends on the stragglers first.
Anyway, I sold a couple of things on eBay. The first went to St. Louis. I couldn't believe it. In the feedback she left, she called me a "promising artist!" :)

| "She's In Church" $49 SOLD |

| The piece is 12" wide x 18" tall acrylic and cut paper on watercolor paper, sealed with gloss varnish. The finished piece was then mounted on a 12"x18" board (about 3/4" thick) that had been painted black. I have attached mounting hardware to the back. All it needs to hang is a nail. |
Then, I painted and listed this. A little different in style, I think. I'm still struggling with pinpointing my own "look."

| "Mary Gazes" $49 - 11" x 18" x 3/4" original mixed media on solid wood |
 |
| I added gold leafing to the edges of this one. It didn't go very well for some reason. Not sure why, but I like the end result anyway. |
She didn't sell the first time around, so I re-listed her.
Next time around I wanted to experiment with this narrow format.

| "Prayerful" $30 SOLD |
I just wrapped the fifth issue of THE PAPER, so hopefully I'll get some painting in this evening!
