Oh, the Paintings

About a year ago I started oil painting again. I did a lot in college but haven't painted in over a decade... and a half. Check out some of the paintings in the slide show on my blog. Most I've given away. A few are hanging in my house. A few are in my closet and will never see the light of day. And I've sold a few at benefit auctions around the area. One actually went for $265! I can be happy with that! I've started a group that meets once a month to do various art projects (painting, clay throwing, knitting, scrapbooking, drawing, etc.). We call ourselves, "Creative Communities." If you'd like more information on joining our group, or starting your own group, let me know. We've been meeting for a year now and it's a joy to see how we've grown together as a group, and how we've grown in our talent. Our goal is to have enough product collectively to rent one of those booths at local craft fairs, or hold our own informal art showing by the summer of 2009. Let me know what you think about my paintings. I can take constructive criticism well.
