I’m very happy to announce a new partnership with Reckless Abandon Online Gallery. It happened rather quickly and I’m very excited about growing my relationship with them. It’s a lovely site and the other artists are wonderful. If you have a moment, check it out. When I have a page […]

2nd Gallery Representation

What is selling out? Why is it such a big deal? “Selling out is a common idiomatic pejorative expression for the compromising of a person’s integrity, morality, authenticity, or principles in exchange for personal gain, such as money.” – Wikipedia (Yeah, I did it.) Most people seem to have very rigid, […]

Selling Out?

I can’t believe it is almost the middle of the month. I completely dropped the ball on the Monday Motivation post this week. I apologize. It will never happen again. I have been trying to post pictures of some RVs I’ve come across, but gmail is not cooperating. The only […]

Where Is February Going?

February 11, 2016 in Business by Elisha

I was slow getting started today. I began reading The Martian for book club and got a little sucked in. I had just convinced myself to start my new painting and gathered my materials when my older brother called. We barely hang out so I went to his house for […]

Almost Does Not Cut It.

November 19, 2015 in Business by Elisha

Although my lack of painting has been due to a block and no small part some depression, I have decided to come up with a few rules for when I start painting again: 1. A painting a day M-F* 2. Start painting by 10am. 3. If I don’t paint, look […]

Rules

May 11, 2015 in Business by Elisha

Today, after checking out several new artists on the 30 in 30 challenge I headed over to the art gallery to wrap up the work on my paintings. As I left the were being beautifully arranged by Leslie, the owner. While I was there we worked on adding me to […]

The Bowery Art Gallery

January 13, 2015 in Art / Business / Links by Elisha

On two fronts! The very first day my art was displayed at the gallery I sold a painting! (Link to speed painting video. Music warning.) My other success is that I finally added a webstore! I have looked for something to help me do this for years. I thought I […]

Success!

I am extremely excited to announce I am now a member of The Bowery Gallery in Apalachicola, Florida. Although, I am sadden to split with Cafe Con Leche, as they are so wonderful and supportive and in my experience really great to work with. They also sold two of my paintings […]

Speed Painting – Purple Cows Moo Too

This is a little “everything but the kitchen sink.” I could have split it up, but I’m hoping to have much more content coming soon. After Vandalia, I went to the very popular Starved Rock state park in Illinois for my birthday. Now I’m in one of the prettiest parks […]

March Challenge At Wet Canvas

April 3, 2014 in Art / Business / Nomad Life tagged Art / Pets / Watercolor by Elisha

If I walk about a quarter mile or less, the view above is what I have. I really love this area. There’s a planetarium I plan to see tomorrow, there’s a great, old bridge that is very scary to drive an RV over, and best of all, there’s absolutely no […]

First Days On The Road

I know, you were thinking I quit painting watercolor and I was going into the business of RV remodeling. Not so. Although, this is not “new” art work, it is new to you. My DSLR won’t connect to either computer any more so I couldn’t get anything off compact flash […]

Last week I started my third class with Alyson B. Stanfield. She is the author of my favorite art business book, I’d Rather Be In The Studio. The first week, among other things, we were supposed to take a before picture of our office and do one thing to immediately improve […]

I have two main blog goals for this year. Take better photos. This has been a goal of mine for awhile, but even a college class didn’t help much. I’m still working on it though and thanks to my new phone, I may have moved forward a little. I found a […]

Blog Goals

I have spent a month trying to find a new cell phone carrier after Verizon tried to seriously screw me over. I tried T-Mobile again, however, even though their customer service is 95% above reproach, I couldn’t make it work. I’m now on to AT&T. Moral of the story: […]
