I just did these aceos. I have trouble selling my art, but on eBay I sell quite a few of these. I don't get much but I would like to keep doing these during my retirement.
New work will be posted as soon as I can get the weather to cooporate with me. My house has bad lighting so I have to go outside to take good pictures. It's sunny today, but very cold and windy. Maybe I should buy a lamp with natural light bulbs. Costly, but good investment. I really would like to find a way to market my work into resellable items-prints, cups, cards, etc. Then I could put them on zazzle.com. I would also like to invest in a good printer. There is a site called CraftCount.com that list the top 100 sellers in all categories on etsy. I check out the top artists selling and realized that they all had one thing in common. Prints. All were selling prints of their work. Even though I like doing one of a kind paintings, prints could up my sales. I could leave corporate America sooner. Wish me luck!
Ruth and Naomi walking through a village among the wheat field. The story of Ruth and Naomi in the Book of Ruth is a beautiful story of love. The love of Ruth for her mother-in-law Naomi, the love of Naomi for Ruth and her wish for Ruth to have a good future after the death of Naomi's husband and sons. Also the love of Boaz for Ruth. And even though the Lord is not mentioned in the story I can also see His love for us, His children. I was actually struggling with this painting as an abstract until I was passing it on my way out of my studio and happened to look at it and saw the figures of the two women, the older and the younger. I like to think that the Holy Spirit showed them to me. The work is done on a 12 x 12 wooden panel. Materials used are acrylic paint, oil pastels, white ink, interference paint, and graphite pencil. $120 with free shipping
