It seems that there is a lot of movement suddenly - Much more activity both on eBay and Etsy. It seems to go in waves. So here's what's happening.
Last week, I sold a print of my egret, a painting I just love! It is on its way to the wonderful Tessa of AnAerialArmadillo in the UK. If you want to see incredibly colorful art and gorgeous photography mixed with beautiful words, make sure you visit her blog!
And today, I sold this lovely lady to a dear, dear friend in Texas. This painting is one of my very favorites and I am so happy it's staying in the family, so to speak. Looking at it again, it reminds me to add more texture to my paintings!
Also today, we sold one of Daniel's illustrations! This is an illustration he did for a spooky story in Spider Magazine (perfect timing with Halloween right around the corner). If you'd like to have a peak at some more of Daniel's exquisite illustrations check his eBay site here or his website here.
Daniel was out of town this weekend and I felt the need to knit and crochet warm scarves. I guess I'm trying to conjure up cooler temperatures. I love fall and summer just lasts so very long here! I've listed them in my new Etsy store for my knitting. I decided to keep my paintings and knitting/crocheting separate. I haven't transferred everything yet, but click here to take a look!
Now Daniel is back home and I have my little family together again. While I am typing this, we are watching the Ken Burns series on our National Parks and am eternally grateful to be living in the midst of all this beauty and to have seen so many of the parks already! Actually, there are many, many things I am very grateful for tonight - among them all of you!!

Don't we have amazing places in this country? That's one of the many reason my father emigrated here. Our parks and wild places are glorious treasures, and, like you, I'm so fortunate to have visited many of them, too. We are lucky, aren't we?

ReplyDeleteHi Silke, so good to hear you are having a great selling period,-funni it`s like that, I know it from here too.
ReplyDeleteYour paintings are wonderfull, espescially love the one of the woman, it is so dynamic and in the most wonderfull colors.
The other day I saw the same yarn you use for some of your scarves, for sale here, wow it is fantastic, but costs a fortune here on my island, more than half from what you sell your great work for.
Hope your day is good dear.
