New Painting in the Works

I am working on a new oil painting called "Without Fret." It is primarily flowers in a red vase. The canvas is 48 inches by 24 inches. It feels good to be at the easel again after an absence last year while making the film Christmas Ride. (We are still looking for cinemas, movie theaters to schedule this moving film. More about it on www.artprofilms.com) Just so people will understand why original art is so expensive, I'm attaching a photo here of the receipt from one art supply store I visited in preparation for this painting. Then I went to another store for a few things I forgot. A lot of materials goes into these paintings, in addition to the time. There are so many beautiful paintings on this website and throughout the world. Not so long ago, (say pre-1995) only a few people were able to see the work of very many artists. Now people can see contemporary works nearly as soon as they are created and shared by artists from all over the world, without waiting for the works to be selected for a brick and mortar gallery in your local town. And through the efforts of art publisher fineartamerica, anyone can purchase a museum quality, authorized copy of work they like through this website at a variety of sizes and shapes.
I enjoy seeing the works of other artists on this website too and have added some to the tab FOLLOWING so I get updates on their new works. Also, I sometimes search around the holidays and select works by theme and add them to the FAVORITES tab. But I don't represent these artists.
I recently uploaded two new images, a Valentine Card for 2014 and a photograph of vintage appearing books entitled Old Friends. Cards, even as few as one, may be custom inscribed when you order from fineartamerica.com on its secure shopping cart, https. You may purcahse with credit card or Pay Pal.
