It is snowing today. On the water it is very peaceful when it snows.
We do still have to shovel our boat off but most of the time it melts away.
It does seem early this year. Maybe we are going to have a crazy winter…
I am doing commissions lately. Portraits
I truly think I have found my ‘thing’.
On the website I have put up a page to show some of the stuff I have done lately : http://www.ArtoftheCoast.com/Portraits
I love doing portraits.
This is 3 year old Miles. He is a lively spirit.
The funny thing is that I don’t know if people will pay to have paintings of their children done. I hope they will. I have seen the portrait ‘caricature’ artists in Victoria doing lots of pictures but that is not where I want to go with this.
I have sent my stuff out on Facebook and did get one commission which I am now working on. I just have to work on some composition issues but I think I have got it figured out.
We can make lots of money fuel polishing but both of us would rather paint.
Of course Howard is a shy painter. He doesn’t try to sell his art much. I on the other hand am always trying to find a way to keep painting instead of ‘working’.
I guess it will all come out in the wash.
