Welcome to my website! Please bookmark this site for future reference.
This page exists to promote and share my interests in painting, commercial ventures, and my other interests. Please bookmark this page as there will be many changes to this site and to my linked sites. Currently I have my watercolor art work listed on two sites, CafePress.com and Imagekind.com. Designer cut cabochon gemstones are on Artfire.com. Discount children's clothing is on Bonanzle.com. And everything else including hand painted silk scarves is located at Etsy.com.
There are numerous links on this page to take you to the appropriate store. Some with sample pictures, some without.
Currently I have been selling a fair number of gemstones as people are becoming interested in crafts like beading and wirewrap jewelry once again. You can find my gemstones on ArtFire.com. I believe you will find the cutting quality to be high and the stones unusual, or rare. I particularly like cutting labradorite, spectrolite, opal, and anything else that catches my fancy. I recently received a parcel of opal and California black jade. I am expecting delivery of ocean jasper, AAA grade Madagascar spectrolite, amethyst, rainbow moonstone, and several other jaspers within the week. Generally it takes 2-6 weeks to make it through the rotation and be listed on the site, but I'll try to push a few samples through.
As far as silk scarves, most of what I have produced are available at The Frame Gallery in Bryan Texas. The stock includes monochrome, hand painted, and two tone silk cut devor. Some of the newer scarves are listed on Etsy.com and include a new process that allows me to create a multi-color painted surface with the devor and a single color silk background. The current culmination is a rainbow colored scarf.
The discount clothing gallery is still in the set up phase. Clothing will be added through June 2009. There is a discount available for those persons who purchase $100.00 or more. Clothing price averages about $4.50. All clothing is new and unworn. Many items have the original manufacturers tags and may have the MSRP listed. Some items are up to 85% off of original store prices. In this economy, you just can't beat that.
I continue to teach my Introduction to Watercolors through the College Station Xtra Education program and manage to do a bit of painting on the side. I have managed to get a few more paintings digitized and up on Imagekind.com. All paintings are available in the largest size, roughly 60 inches in the long dimension. I highly recommend that you have you print printed on ultra smooth fine art paper. This is a special paper made as a conservation or museum grad paper and with proper care will last a life time and most likely more than one lifetime; a true heirloom that can be handed down to your children, grand children, or great grand children. Other less expensive papers are available. You can even have the print made on canvas.
Imagekind.com is a full service website. Order your print size, substrate(paper or canvas), mats, frame, and glazing. You can order a finished package that is basically ready to hang as soon as it arrives. Or you can just purchase a print and have the framing done locally.
Cafepress.com brings art into the real world with a wide range of products from apparel to mugs to pillows and etcetera.
