Dear ,
Just two weeks ago - though it seems like eons with the kids home - I released a new yoga mat design for you to choose from for your yoga practice. It was met with oohs and awes at Three Birds Yoga Studio where I held a Pop Up shop on the 10th of August. It's a geothermal inspired design, taken from another one of my recent TeaScape paintings. It's now available to you for
purchase.
As you scroll down, you'll see I'm also teasing you with Events coming up in September, as well as Art Class News, and Commission Deadlines for the holidays - yes, I just mentioned the holidays.
A new show just opened this past week, and is up through the 14th.
Lastly, my garden watercolors just wrapped up yesterday and I've included the 29th day below. You can read more about the project and when I plan to make them available for purchase.
In the meantime, I hope you make the most of the last full official week of summer.
New Yoga Mat - Hot Stress Relief
|
Hot Stress Relief Yoga Mat
This TeaScape combines the benefits of the thermostable properties found in geysers; textured watercolors that feel ocean-like, layered over packaging transferred from the Yogi Tea, Stress Relief, that helps calm the body during times of stress. Your down dog may never feel the same again. This snippet comes from the painting of the same name, featuring geysers in Upper Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park.
Thank you to Sarah Bodnar of Three Birds Yoga in Florham Park, NJ, where I released Hot Stress Relief for the first time and held a pop up shop on the 10th. She gave me the honor to photograph her for product shots. You can see more poses on my
site.
At the moment I only have 3 mats in stock, but if they sell out, I can easily order more with a fairly quick turnaround. Just contact me.
Tuesday Adult Watercolor Class NEWS

TUESDAY WATERCOLOR & MORE AM CLASS
You've been ever so patient and I'm so close to finalizing this location change. Please keep an eye on your email over the next week for an announcement. I'm working as quickly as I can on this - please contact
me with any questions.
Holiday Commissions - Book by September 15th
|
No need to panic. This is just a nudge due to my experience of people coming to me in December and asking, "can you do a custom . . . for Christmas?" It's just not feasible - I already
have some holiday projects I'm starting soon for customers. Custom artwork, like any art, takes time. I want to be able to dedicate the necessary time to make your work amazing. So, if you're considering a custom artwork, you MUST book by September 15th, in order to be guaranteed delivery for end of year holiday giving. Dog, Wedding Cake Portraits, and Home Portraits fall into these offerings. Help me create a lasting, memorable work of art to honor something
special in your life.
This past Sunday, the West Orange Arts Council hosted an exhibit, "Artists of the Oranges," in which both my photo and work was included. This was an unusual show in that the main body of work are photos of artists in their work spaces, taken by local photographer, Jim Horton. The show is made up of 15 artists who work in the Oranges of NJ,
along with examples of their work. It's truly a gem to see - the artists are all quite accomplished and varied in their media and subject matter. The exhibit runs through September 14th and the gallery will be open on Wednesdays, 6:30 - 8pm and Saturdays, 2 - 4pm. My piece, Antioxidant Blue, is available for sale. You can contact the gallery directly or me to purchase. 25% of the sale benefits the arts council.
30 Days of Garden Watercolors Releasing Soon
|
I completed all 30 garden watercolors just yesterday. This one is Day 29. I'm going to be spending some time in the next week (while kids are home) documenting and pricing these beauties. As soon as they are
mounted and ready to go, I'll be releasing them for sale to my subscribers. Keep an eye on your email.
If you haven't popped onto Instagram in a while, I posted day 30 and tagged a bunch of people who helped encourage and support me along the way. Click the button below.
