City Skyline Prints, Print Website, "Taste of Talent" Event, A Boy and His Dog Portrait and the Panamanian Embassy

Sorry I am such a bad blogger, I am trying to catch up with some news now:


I painted this "Jacksonville Skyline" bigger, the original oil painting is H 40" W 30" and it is for sale, contact me about it. (I painted it previously as a small "Painting a Day" 6 1/2" x 12" blog painting.) I've had it scanned to be a giclee print, here are the print sizes and prices:

Available as a high quality giclee digital print, using archival ink and acid free paper or canvas:
36" x 27" $900
30" x 22.5" $700
24" x 18" $300
20" x 15" $180
12" x 9" $75
Prints on canvas come stretched on a canvas frame with edges painted, ready to hang up.
Prints on paper must be framed behind glass or plexi. (This image is not yet on my print site.)
I am attending the Riverside Fine Arts Series fundraising event "Taste of Talent" this Friday night, April 30th at the Church of the Good Shepherd from 7 - 11 pm. Tickets are $60. It is a night of live music on multiple stages with great food and art on auction. (The large watercolor above, pictured with Talley for scale, will be available.) Also in the silent auction tables, I donated two small "Jacksonville Skyline" prints on paper or canvas to bid on. I really enjoyed it last year - a very classy, arty, musical affair!
This "Boy and His Dog" portrait was commissioned this Christmas by a thoughtful husband as a gift for his wife. She was blown away by the surprise. He also received some good photos out of our photo posing session too! See my side business of casual outdoor photo sessions here.
I received this photo of the US Ambassador to Panama, Barbara Stephenson at her embassy residence with my watercolor "Tulips, New York Botanical Gardens" on loan through the State Department's Art in Embassies Program.

I will try to be better about posting more often! Cheers!
