(update: SOLD! THANK YOU M.) Friends, here it is. "Her Path Leads to the Ocean" Soft Pastel Painting 13"x13" in a 14" frame... Many thanks to Julia Ann of https://instagram.com/woodfolkk for the collaboration on this piece. Julia Ann is a textile artist in Eastern Canada, a knitter and pattern maker, who loves to take pictures of her beautiful surroundings. She captured my heart and my creative spirit. You know how I love the Prairie ditches, the earth and the Flora, and being able to see far!? She has a lot of similar images that really spoke to me. I asked her and she said yes! A portion of my sales will be e-transferred to her. I'm especially excited that she happens to be a textile Artist, as well as Canadian. Some of her images will be thread painted by me. Some will be hand stitched with yarn. The next one I work on, I plan to weave it on my loom. I'm so thrilled about this collaboration! Many thanks to you, Julia Ann See more

Four more sleeps until my BIG MidWinter Online Art Sale! I'm going to have at least 20 framed pastel paintings available!!! Here's a sample the variety of the type of art you'll find on Saturday.

Work in progress There's a BIG story behind this one I'll share with the finished piece

Ditches. I'm framing some today.

Mark your calendars! I'll have plenty of Pastel Paintings available. :) I've been BUSY. I'll put the link to my Etsy shop up the day before, and send it out via email. If you haven't already you can sign up by popping in your email at the bottom of any page on my website. (If you have done this but haven't received any of my emails, just check your spam folder.) I will also have lots of yarn embroidery, cards, and perhaps some small weaving art as well.

Here's a little 6x6 inch Pastel Painting. Happy & Bright. I do look forward to getting some winterscapes completed soon!

Announcement! I'm moving the cut-off for pre orders ahead to November 10th. There's a lot of push to get the holiday mailouts going earlier to avoid disappointment. If you haven't ordered yet or have one sitting in the shopping cart, you have 5 days to put it through. All the details are in the listing fyi. THANKS SO MUCH to all of you who have placed orders ! https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/870880690/2021-wall-calendar
