Kittyscape


 

"Kittyscape," 6" x 12", another Gratitude Painting, a portrait of my little Mona Lisa, done in Golden Open Acrylics on an Ampersand Gessobord. Proceeds from this painting (and all Mona's others) will be donated to my local shelter (from whence she hailed). Inquiries may come to me.

 
In order to keep the emails short but sweet (that reminds me I have a Whatchamacallit candy bar tucked in my desk... yum!), I'm moving Lesson Paintings onto the studio FB page. There's multiple images of this one in process, along with some random notes of mine, over there.

 
Let me know what you think about this arrangement - it's all about keeping you happy!! 

 
Also, getcher Mona-Bug fix here - where you can view all the paintings of the Buglet to date.
 

Thanks, as always, for looking at and sharing my paintings with your friends and family,
Kim
 
 
COMING UP ~~ PAINTING WORKSHOP "Mixing Color Not Mud": Saturday, October 8th, at the Orion Art Center in Lake Orion MICHIGAN. Email me to get on the early bird list.
 


 
Corrections
 

There were some anatomical problems with one of the horses in my painting from last week titled "Morning Banter." I've corrected this and made a few other adjustments to the painting, and I am so much happier with it!
 

The original is available for purchase - click here to see a larger jpg of the painting and get additional information.

 
You can also order notecards (of this painting and a mess of others - take a peek at the site!!).

 
THANKS!!

 
ALSO A REMINDER: I'll be painting live tomorrow at Raining Cats and Dogs on Main Street in Frankenmuth from 1-5. Stop on by and introduce yourself!

Picture Book "A Dog Named Blue" - now available!!

The cover of "A Dog Named Blue," now available from Blurb publishers. When I first painted Amelia I never imagined that she would be re-christened "Blue" and inspire a book. In her defense, Amelia had a number of other partners in crime - animals who's portraits seemed to fall into a specific color category and prompt color-centric names. In typical ADD fashion, my brain started spinning 100mph. What if I turned those muses' paintings into a picture book for animal loving kids? I shared my idea with three friends in the industry, and they eagerly offered their expertise. I am truly indebted to them. Illustrator and author Matt Faulkner and children's book author and literacy expert Kristen Remenar edited an early version of the draft. They suggested key plot/conceptual changes that made it oodles better. Designer Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelson worked her magic, pairing the images with perfectly color...

Tabby Kit

"Tabby Kit," 5" x 7", acrylics on a museum quality panel, depicting a tiny little orange striped guy from Morgue File . This painting can be yours for $289, which includes s&h inside the US. And in case you didn't see it, a little doodle of him is also available for sale here . Inquires may come directly to me .  Although it certainly doesn't FEEL like spring here (snow and ice and wind chills, brr!), I can tell that spring is coming. The mercury is rising a wee bit each day and the days are getting longer and brighter. Over the weekend we drove with the moonroof open just to feel the sun's meager and oh-so-very-welcome warmth (although the heat in the car was cranked, too, in the interest of full disclosure!). I wanted to work with spring-like colors today, and this little guy was still on my mind , so I grabbed a small panel and got to work. Of course, I also have Poppy to finish and some changes to make to another po...

Dear Copyright Thieves

Dear Copyright Thieves,   Just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it's free for the taking. So let's just stop pretending the internet is a free-for-all.   Don't play the card that you didn't know - that's insulting. And don't also tell me that you meant to follow up and get permission but never got a chance to. That's insulting too. And by the way, don't you have a copyright protection notice on your own site?   And don't even try and point the finger at a third party who commissioned you to make a copy of my painting - again, an insult - you and I both know the difference between a reference photo and a painting.   And don't tell me that I asked for it because I share my artwork on the internet. I share my paintings and ideas and the stories behind them so as to encourage others to pursue  their own passions . I do not share so that those lacking integrity and morals can copy and market the images as their own...
