I'm thinking of this or something like this for our landscape class on Wednesday.
I think my students would enjoy the yellow tree, but maybe something more simple for the rest.

My friend Sue and I went this morning to the Plaza Open House. We got to play with lots of art materials, try out some new things, watch some demos. Great artsy fun! I did this little tiny painting, thought it was good enough to sell. I'll paint the sides, top and bottom when it's dry enough to handle. No frame needed.

I revised this one this morning, cleaned up the colors a little, and made the petals more distinct.
AND lowered the price. The top blossom is actually purples, though it looks more blue on my laptop, maybe on your computer also.

This one is revised from October 6.
I thought that the shadows were too deep, and that the blue wasn't strong enough.
Better, I think.

Detail (Close Up) Below:

I've been studying my price points this week, seeing at what prices I get sales. It seems that between $20 and $30 is where my collectors want paintings. After talking it over with my art buddy, I will be listing the price on each painting where I think it should be, and where I think it will sell. (Recession Price.) My art buddy also suggests that I get a "real job" and maybe put the painting career on hold for awhile. (Since I'm barely covering expenses at this price point.)

I wonder if anyone out there knows of a work-at-home situation that isn't a scam?
Please send an email if you know of a legitimate online, work-at-home job situation. Thanks!
