Mural #2 Update - Painting Completed!
At long last, I have finished painting the second mural painting I began in September/October last year.
Final varnishing remains, and renovations must be completed at the hospital before installation can be done. Stay tuned for updates.
This photo is not quite true to the colors of the painting. Better images will follow when I have a chance to take some photos with better light.

Mural #2 update
Sorry to have left everyone in the dark for so long! A painting of this size is harder to photograph than my usual work. It's best to get a photo during the day when daylight is available. Also, last time I was going to do this, my camera's batteries were run down.
The far left panel is basically finished. The other three have various things to be attended to, but I am in a finishing sort of mode now! The handful of cows, some of the shadows cast by the trees, and fence posts are coming up on my agenda. (Click on the pic to see it much more close-up.)

Mural 2 progress
I continue to work on the second mural as much as possible - this is an update from 1/17. More progress has been made since last week, which I will post later. As you can see from the furniture in front, this is a very large painting! By the way, you'll need to click on the image to see the whole photo.

Keeping Busy!
December is going well! 50+ sales on Etsy.com already this month, and it's only the 11th! The shop is keeping me quite busy with holiday shoppers, plus I'm still working on the second mural painting and trying to get in my own holiday shopping (all around my day job during the week!).
My books are out there in a few retail locations for the holidays, but I haven't made time for any craft fairs. If you're lucky, they might make an appearance at my friend Meredith's table at the Handmade Bazaar at P:ear in Portland on Sunday - but I'm not promising!

Second Mural of two
I've been working on the prep work (sanding, gesso, gesso, gesso, base drawing) for the second mural commission. Finally I have put down some oil paint. This piece is larger than the first. There are 4 panels, each 46" square with a 6" space separating them.

Mural Update #3
Some more progress on the painting over the weekend:
(The middle panel is a little distorted because of the patching of 2 photos together.)

Mural 1 Update
Most of the additional work in the last few days has been in adding detail to the sky. Note the tissue box for scale - Each panel is 44 inches square. I've got a long way to go yet.

Mural 1 in progress
It has taken a while to get through the prep. work which included sanding, gesso, & under-drawing, but I have finally begun to make some progress with the Mural #1 (Lewisburg area, looking south). Here's a patched together photo. I can't stand far enough away from the panels to take one picture so I have to correct for some distortion, but this is at least something to look at. Each of the panels in the photo are 44 inches square with two 4 inch spaces separating them.

Mural Paintings Project
The details have been finalized, and I have begun assembling materials to start on a commission I have received by way of the ArtsCare program of the Corvallis Art Center (ArtCentric) for two large multi-panel paintings for Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center in Corvallis. The paintings will be two panoramic landscape scenes - one from north of Corvallis and one from the Alpine area south of the city.
The project will be ongoing through 2008, and the paintings will eventually be hanging in the hospital's Conference Rooms A & B after remodeling/ construction is completed. I'll post updates and pictures occasionally through the year, so check back!
