"Fired Up!" 16"x20"x1.5" textured acrylic- $550.00

I am addicted to color- all color- though yellow I can only take in small doses, but it does have it's place and uses. I prefer my yellows to be in the earthy range, like yellow ocher and raw sienna for y golden horses. There are times a color combination captures  my attention and I repeat it to gather up as much energy from it as I can. Such was the case with this painting. It started with #60 in the summer series, was repeated in "Eternal Flame" (posted two blogs ago) and now here it is again in "Fired Up!". This one is heading to NY for the EQUINE! festival to be on display there. I know there are artists who's work encompasses just a limited pallet, and I don't know if I could do that- I like to use all the colors to express myself- for mood, emotion, and aura. My favorite color is magenta purple, but I don't use it that often to paint with. My niece just got married September 5th and her color chosen for the wedding was purple. I was so thrilled! I often wonder- why does one certain color or blend of colors appeal to people? Why do we have those preferences? With my art, I'm bound to touch on favorites since I love the whole color wheel.

     I'll be using several varying size of canvas, all gallery wrap, starting with the smallest at 4"x4", to 5"x5", 6"x6", 6"x8", 8"x8", 8"x10", 10"x10", 9"x12", and I might do an 11"x14" if the mood strikes me. This will run for 60 straight days from June 21st. The paintings will be priced according to size and I'll be donating a portion of each sale to 501(c) horse rescue efforts. Shipping is extra determined by size or amount purchased in one shipment. The price list with basic one painting shipping costs are listed at the bottom of this post. 

     Like last year, I will donate a lump sum from the combined sale of paintings- each buyer will be listed on the receipt of payment for verification. I am no longer taking pre-paid requests. The paintings will come ready to hang. 

     I'll be posting on all my blogs at varying times throughout the day, but at 6AM pacific time on my personal blogspot, and each days featured painting will be posted on my FB art page and in my website blog God willing. They can sell pretty fast, so be aware it's a first come- first serve basis with payment due upon receipt of invoice via paypal. If you don't have a paypal account talk to me and we'll figure it out privately. Let's help some horses and make your eyes and soul a little happier- buy your favorites- and I'll donate!

"Break Free" 18"x24"x1.5" acrylic

 
  As an artist it's an intimate expression to put yourself in your work, it's a story of who you are, who you strive to be, your secrets, your longing, your desires. It's bravery to show all these elements of yourself to the world knowing not everyone can decipher what they see, or relate to the emotions and meaning emanating from your artwork.
     To have a positive connection made by another person to our art gives credence, substance and validation to what you've done, to have someone be callous and critique negatively out of indifference, narrow minded views, or jealousy is probably one of the bigger challenges of being an artist. They say have a thick skin, realize there are far more positives than negatives; it can be tough to wear that armor when what you've opened yourself from the soul for all to see! So to have that happen and struggle with yourself over what to validate in your heart, mind and soul- the good- or allow the bad to win, takes work to break free of the dead weight. Be you, be true, be honest and the light will return. Just break free............ and be free........

     I am proud to announce that "Break Free" will be on display at the International Museum of Art El Paso starting August 3rd when there will be the opening reception from 2- 4:30PM for the all equine show The Horse; Spirit, Art, and Soul. The Museum is taking inquires for sales on artwork starting on August 3rd. The show runs until September 28th.
