Mother's Day Daisy Painting ACEO

Sold

2.5" x 3.5" (6.4cm x 8.9cm)

A new flower painting in time for Mother's Day.

This is an acrylic painting on watercolor paper, a combination I have really been enjoying. It's an effective combination, I think, since you can paint directly on the nicely textured surface without gessoing. When painting with oils on paper, you always have to gesso or seal the surface with acrylic matte medium. If you don't, the oil will absorb into the paper and rot it.

Yellow Goldfinch Sketch ACEO

Sold
ACEO yellow goldfinch sketch

This is one of the more quickly drawn sketches I've done. There were no stumbles, backtracking, or fixes to do-- just smooth sailing.

Birds are interesting to draw, but I'd also like to do some new bird paintings as well. I painted a few birds in acrylic several years ago. I'm not sure if I've posted those or not. If not, look for those soon.

Revolution Money Exchange Offering $25 Sign-up Bonus

This is a new payment network to rival PayPal, and through April 15, they are offering $25 to everyone who creates an account (see the sign up button below). I signed up last week and the procedure is quick and painless, and much like PayPal. But unlike PayPal, there are no fees involved.

Once you sign up, two deposits are made to your bank account. To verify your bank account with Money Exchange, you input the two amounts in the required fields. Once that's complete you can either spend the money or transfer it your bank account.

Also, for every person that you refer, you get an additional $10 (upon completion of account creation), so there is a possiblity of a nice chunk of extra money to be made.

Old Tree Sketch ACEO

Sold

I like trees, especially old ones where the trunk and branches are doing all sorts of interesting things.

Tree tidbit: Thomas Jefferson is supposed to have said that he thought it should be a punishable offense to cut down a tree for no good reason.
