The Climb

These little pieces have been a great source of fun. They are becoming my "snap shot " of my time spent walking through favorite places, now and in years gone by.It only takes a fragrance of pine, or the call of a bird, the crunch of past fallen leaves and I'm there..... This 5" x7" ready to frame mixed media collage can be purchased .$35.00 + tax +shipping. SOLD Please email me for information : kelhart1958@aol.com (MC, Visa,Paypal accepted)

I have recently offered this new format to my outdoor show customers and it has been well received. Created for my customers looking for that "little something" type gift to give ...or treat themselves. This is a 5"x7" ,ready to frame, mixed media collage painting. The image is mounted on matte board and collage unites the two surfaces giving it dimension and texture. $35.00 + tax & shipping(MC,Visa, Paypal accepted) SOLD

The Artist/Mother

It seems appropriate today, Mother's Day, to dedicate this blog to all the artists who also juggle motherhood: Celebrate the dried out palette...because bathtime was playtime....again! Celebrate the fine ,delicate line gone astray...because your toddler barreled into you with unbridled enthusiasm and hugs. Celebrate the "ah-ha" moment of your painting when your brooding teen deemed it necessary to comment " Is THAT a color?" Celebrate the quiet of a just cleaned kitchen table on which you placed your painting...dreaming of a studio. Celebrate...overhearing your children say "That's my Mom,she's an artist!" Celebrate your children....your greatest work of art! Thank you, Stacy, Jessica and Lindsay...with love, Mom

Finally launched!

I've waited a long time to blog. Reading other blogs by many artist has encouraged me to give this a try. The final push came after discovering Alyson Stanfield's www.ArtBizCoach.com . Her marketing approach is very pro-active and common sense....and blogs are a means to the end. My blog title states that I am a daily painter but a Sunday blogger...hmmm . I have recently joined with a very hard working art rep, who is selling my work well. That situation plus a very active show and demonstration schedule keeps me painting at a fast pace.Bloggging takes time. Is it valuable? I've truly learned alot about the internet, marketing and networking with many artist that have great ideas.....but the painting comes first! I hope you will visit with comments, click on my web site ...and I'll get back to you next Sunday!
