Hello!
Happy
Independence Day!
Welcome to the
July issue of The Taylor Times! I know I have some new
readers this month.
The painting I
have featured this month is some of the freshest paint in the studio/
booth at the moment. It is one scene of a six painting series of
round bails and wood lined fields. I am very excited about this
series and I’m sure there will be more of the same inspiration soon.
The colors are inviting and for many of us, the scenery is familiar
and friendly. I have finished five of the six paintings and they are
posted under Farms and Fields tab in my online painting
gallery.

Follow a Painting
I have just
posted a finished lake and round bail paintings on my blog. I have
also been taking photos of my booth in the different places I have
been selling my paintings and posting them as well. It is fun to
follow where I am traveling to as well. Stop by the blog and see
either where I’m at or what I am painting!

Paint Running
As the summer
moves along, many of our long distance runners are training for fall
marathons and half-marathons. If you know a runner who would like
inspiration in the form of a print or painting, let me know. I have
filled several gift requests for runners this summer – they have been
unique and quite fun!

Question and Answer
Each month I
answer a question related to shows or my art. I have two in mind that
have been fairly prominent in my last two shows. This month I will
address one of them.
Q: Would you
need to frame one your paintings?
A: I may have
addressed this in the past but it never hurts to chat about one of the
wonderful advantages to purchasing and enjoying my paintings. I paint
around the sides of my stretcher bars so that the painting extends all
the way around the canvas. (And as a side note, I stretch the canvas
first and physically paint around the sides!) This allows the
painting to be enjoyed from any angle and it provides a clean and neat
finished edge. Additionally, you do not have to frame a painting of
mine. Your investment is final with the purchase of the painting and
you can hang as soon as you get home! |
