SOLD!  Having a good week.  Sold two paintings plus the commission.  This gem went to a man in Chantilly, VA so this is probably one of his favorite D.C. memorials.  I originally painted this for an art show that had to be paintings done in Arlington, Virginia.  I chose this view from the Virginia side of the Potomac River.

Commission - Positano Italy

I guess "large paintings" are back in style as this is the second commission I've received this month that is very large.  My last one was 3 by 6 feet and this one is 3 by 4 feet.  It's so much fun to paint big!  I actually prefer it to trying to capture it all on a small canvas.  There is something so freeing about it.  Both paintings went to the San Diego area.  I have two more requests for larger commissions of Kiawah, Island that I may be working on soon.  Probably not quite as large as this one.  I love how this turned out.  I really captured the essence of the hillsides of Positano.  Here's to lots more commissions:)

Wow.  I've sold five Bald Head Island paintings this year.  People really like Bald Head.  I will keep painting it.  I spent a wonderful week there with family a few years ago.  If you ever have a chance to visit there you should take it.  It's been a busy week for me as I'm also working on a commission of Positano, Italy that is 3 by 4 feet!  It's almost done.  I will share it with you in a few days.

SOLD! Old Baldy

This is the fourth Bald Head, Island painting I've sold this year.  It's quite a popular site!  I guess a lot of people go there.  I went a few years ago and painted the "Old Baldy" lighthouse but I had no idea how popular they would be.  I've now painted it four different ways.  Here's hoping for more sales!  This one is going to a new home in Virginia.
