Billmurray

 
 

"Billmurray," 4" square, a commissioned dog tag painting, acrylic on museum quality panel, private collection (THANK YOU!). Let me know if you want one of these done up custom with your dog's name.
 

 
And yes, I will be doing a mess of green tags for St Patty's Day, so stay tuned! It'll probably be the tail end of next week or early the following.

 
Don't forget the current auction going on over on Facebook - eight older paintings are looking for new homes. Bidding ends at 9pm EST. 

 
Hope everyone in the Midwest is holed up and safe as this newest storm moves through - grab a book and settle in if you can!

Up & Coming


Tonite, 6-8pm, grownUPs Journaling class at the Orion Art Center. Come join us for a special project focused on passion. RSVP to me.

 
Tomorrow, all day, The Man Child auditions for the school of music at my alma mater, Michigan State University. Send him lots of good vibes (ha!! pun intended - he's a percussionist).

 
Saturday, Feb 22nd, 3-9pm, live paint at theGrand Bohemian Hotel and Gallery in downtown Orlando, Florida. I'm bringing along two panels - a water dog composition and a painting of Mona and Vinnie (inspired by this photo shared last week). I'll also have the pleasure of painting alongside my bestie Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelson. Please stop by to make sure we are working hard.

 
Monday, Feb 24th, 6-9pm, at The Craft Shack in Longwood, Florida, come learn some journaling techniques and make your own journal. Please RSVP with Debbie.

 
Tuesday and Wednesday, Feb 25th and 26th, I will be paling around sunny Florida with Elizabeth. We have a long checklist of activities, including painting together in her studio, visiting the Salvador Dali Museum, working on our book (yes, there has been a book in process for years and shamefully I am the holdup), planning our Artprize installation for 2013, and hanging with her family.

 
I return to the studio on Friday the 28th. I'll update Facebook as I can and try to post a couple times from Florida, but I may also just put my feet up and unplug. I know you'll forgive me if I do!

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
“Rapt (Shadow),” from the Larger than Life series, 16”x22”, acrylic black lab mixed breed pet portrait on gallery wrapped canvas, $699. Inquiries to ksantini@turtledovedesigns.com . SOLD. This is Shadow, who went missing on Sunday night. He belongs to a friend of mine, and has been a fixture in our community for many years. Errant fireworks scared the silly old guy into running off, and his family is busy searching for him. (If you happen to be in the Lake Orion/Oakland County area and have seen Shadow, please call 248-391-0867 or 248-391-6817) I’m confidant that he is safe (somewhere!) and awaiting discovery, but meanwhile, couldn’t help myself from posting his portrait as today’s dog a day painting . He’s constantly on my mind, and probably will remain so, until he finds his way back home. Hug your four legged guys while you can! Thanks, as always, for looking. And for sharing these paintings with friends and family, Kim Kimberly Kelly Santini http://www.turtledovedesigns.com/ dis

NEW! Etsy Store

One of my favorite unsold paintings from 2008, "Lashes & Corkscrews," 5" x 8", acrylic on canvasboard, depicting a tobiano buckskin curly horse, $289. Inquiries to ksantini@turtledovedesigns.com (but read further on how you can get a special deal on this painting!). Now it's ridiculously easy to browse my painting archives. All you have to do is visit my Etsy store . Etsy has a Shopping Cart (so you can pile it high with purchases from a variety of artists), is integrated with Paypal (although you may still pay by check if you prefer to), and is terribly simple to navigate. When the week has ended, I will have listed almost 100 of my favorite (UNSOLD!) paintings here, grouped loosely by subject matter. During 2009 I'll update the shop regularly, and add non-Dog-a-Day pieces as a bonus, thus making it easy to search for that perfect gift. Watch my daily postings for announcements, promotions and discount codes. If you do not receive the Dog-a-Day emails (
