Air Conditioning ? I'm painting snowmen......

[paintinpat]

I have recently been very busy painting for our fall line. Here is one that I would like to share with you all. It is a 8 x 10 acrylic done on paper. Seems snowmen outsell poor Santa 9 to 1....cause I guess he's only here for one day and the snowmen can be displayed for a longer time. This will be framed in a rustic frame that we make in our wood shop, without glass for a more primitive look. I enjoy reading the posts and wish I could post more often but seems we are the "traveling sales people" for our business and on the road an awful lot.

This is wonderful Pat. I can see it framed out all rustic. What kind of business do you have? I don't travel but work at home in my studio selling locally and just starting on ebay; I wish I could travel and participate in regional art fairs and such.

Thanks leesmith,
We do wholesale art and craft shows, all articles are made from my original artwork, some call it tole, decorative painting, primitive type art, whatever. We started doing retail shows several years ago and then went on to only wholesale to other crafters and to shops, we ship our products to several states for resale. I love it and wouldn't have any other job. My husband and I travel to do the various shows in a 31 foot motor home and pull a cargo trailer if we are doing what is called a cash and carry show, if on the other hand we are doing a market type show, such as Atlanta's merchandise mart, we only take samples and orders. Hope I have explained the reason I disappear sometimes for a couple of weeks from the site...can't wait to get home each time to go to the WC and see what is happenin' here.

Hi Pat
This one is just beautiful! I like it very much.

I've been getting busier. My ebay sells have picked up and now I've started painting Saw blades and put them up for sell on ebay too.

Hubby being a carpenter, he has more than a few of those old things laying around!

Well, you just be sure and stop in every time you get to put your feet up. We'll be here!

Don't worry, its gonna be all right....

Pat, that sounds like lots of fun ( and hard work! )travelling but there's no place like home is there? It sounds like things are going very well.
