Sold Paintings end of 2022 (so far)

So far I have sold three paintings this month.  The first is this adorable large piece of two Highland calves:

At 36 x 48 this is the largest piece that has sold this month.  (Well other than a few custom pieces that I have been working on.)

I took the original photo for this several years ago, but finally painted it I believe this year.  I've gotten into the Highland cows and have done several by now, some are still available here.

 

 I also received and accepted an offer on this cute Holstein piece:

 

It's an 11 x 14 painting on panel, titled "Lucky 7 Holstein"

 

When I first painted this one I also was told the negative space on this cows face could also be the outline of a mouse, standing.  Can you see that?  I do now, but will admit the reason I noticed this calf and took it's photo is because of the 7.  The new owner has been following my work for a while, and I was happy to send it to her!

 

Also sold is this 16 x 20 painting called "Peeking At You".  It's a framed piece, as I had it in a show, and is an oil on masonite board.

 

Anyone who loves cows, whether they live with them or just watch them, can appreciate this curious calf peeking out from under it's mother's protective look.  This was purchased by another regular viewer, someone on my emailing list.  She called me, because she had no idea how much I would want, I said, I'm feeling the spirit of the season, make me an offer that you would like to pay, plus she told me why she wanted this particular piece.  I was pleased that she made an offer, and I was able to accept it, largely because of her story. A nice Christmas treat!

Feel free to call or text me at 619-933-5935.

 

There are a few more days left of this year, a great time to see what is available, as I am making room for new work, new series etc in 2023.  That painting you might have had your eye on, make me an offer I just may say yes!

I didn't make it during the month of October

I did a daily painting project during the month of October that I had to quit abruptly.  I had a family emergency, which for now is over.

All there was time to do is a few custom pieces I would like both finished and shipped by the end of the year, photos coming of those after their new owners receive them so I don't ruin anyone's surprise!

 

Besides that, I am already making plans for 2023 to be an epic year for my work,  more large works, more small works, more subjects besides cows.  Yes, you read that right!  I am hoping to introduce a few new collaborations, if you have a business and some thoughts about how best to do that send me a message or call/text me 619-933-5935.

 

Also I am thinking about opening a separate print 'store' online somewhere, this is one of what you might see there:

 

This is a 10 x 20 of a painting of a friend of mine, I wrote extensively about this piece here check it out.

This is available as a 5 x 10 signed print, just ask if you would like one in your western themed home or for a gift.

Do read about the subject, it is open to the public on my Patreon page https://www.patreon.com/deniserichart.
