@Shanus , what a sweet painting! I like the optimistic yet restrained colorwork. Congratulations on the sale!

My father was an industrial designer who painted as a hobby/side gig. He also lectured about history at community colleges. He worked in huge abstracts where you could really see and feel his hand. He was also a bit infamous for painting cars and motorcycles with the American flag in the early 70s.

Thank you for helping me remember! I haven't thought about him in a while.

@LindaSal Thank you. I majored in art and have painted for many years. I guess it seemed to go naturally to being a makeup artist.

Just wanted to show my Forum Friends what I'm doing in my semi-retirement time.

It was a fun show and I assume many paintings, as well as the pottery and other items sold will become Mother's Day gifts. Great timing!

@cindyNC Just figured out this morning how to post a photo I take with phone. I have at least two dozen paintings finished and "ready to go".

What kind of paint do you use?

Re: PAINTINGS SOLD :)

Shanus — Mon, 13 May 2024 15:18:35 GMT

@lgfan This one is watercolor, inks, oil pastels, Posca marking pens, etc. I have a table full of choices.

Yes! At first glance I thought it was needle point / needle work.

Very detailed watercolor. Beautiful.

My father in law did beautiful watercolour paintings. There were 4 kids and I think DH and I took more paintings than the others. We have had some reframed and have more to go. I love having them around our home. Your work is lovely OP!
