A stroke of inspiration hit today and I revamped my home page - hopefully making navigation around my site a bit more fluid and making it more clear what I offer. Go ahead and nose around - you might find something to collect, something to commission or something to learn.

Spend $50 or more in my online shop through July 5th and enjoy Free Shipping through the US and free local delivery. Good towards original art, fine art prints, yoga mats, and commissions if booked this weekend. Shipping is done through USPS or UPS, depending on pricing. Shipping rates recently went up on larger packages and I've already seen a significant rate increase on some of my shipments. This is a great opportunity!

A few months ago I was chatting with some artist friends about exploring products to expand my revenue and I stumbled upon a few printers using the yoga mat as a substrate. I found it! This was it. And, I was in need of a new yoga mat. So I played with some designs, tested out an order and the feedback has been amazing, both personally and from buyers.

Now you can order a commissioned dog portrait much more easily on my web site. If you're interested only in a minimal portrait - only your furry pup on the surface, with only a shadow and one medium, I have a few limited sizes available for purchase online. The sizes range from 2" x 3" through 16" x 20" and are offered in pencil or oil only. Pricing begins at $75. 

If you'd like a portrait that is more complex and customized in background or multiple media as seen in most of the pieces above, you can contact me separately or download the pricing list on my "How To Commission" page. 

Tell me what you think - I'm sure I will see areas in which to tweak further - a web site is as much a work in progress as my artwork. 

ICYMI - I posted today on Insta the first of a 30 Day Challenge - to create a daily am watercolor using my garden as the subject. The only structure I've given myself is to paint in the morning, using watercolor, in my sketchbook. This has all come from the use of a Bullet Journal, scheduling out 4 weeks of my summer while the boys are both at camp, and desiring to really commit to regular practices. I'll be posting daily on Instagram so follow me there - they might also migrate to Facebook, if you're not on Instagram. This was an outtake that Ringo photobombed. He wouldn't move!
