Summer News Letter

Summer News Letter

I began this painting a day project on October 11, 2006. Each day I paint one small painting and post it on my blog if I miss a day due to travel I make it up and post two later, the goal is 365 painting. I have continued this painting goal for 2008 but now I sometimes paint a large painting not just the small studies that I started out doing. My daily painting blog can be found at http://paintingoftheday.blogspot.com

I have started a free painting giveaway once a quarter. When I make the announcement you have 48 hours to send me an e-mail and be in the drawing for a free painting. The first winner was Lyn from Auckland, New Zealand.

It has been a busy year. I have done a lot of traveling this year to much to talk about so I will talk about some of the paintings that I have done:

The year started with a juried show at the Carnegie Art Center. In February I had one of my paintings featured in Art Calendar Magazine, in March one of my painting was use by the Northeastern Organic Farming association for the 2008 national invitation cover and in June I had one of my painting featured with the Daily Painters Group in art Collector Magazine. The new cook book cover of the Peconic Land Trust, Quail Hill Farm came out in July with my painting “Fresh Vegetable” on the cover.

I was accepted into the Oil Painters of America in June. I am now trying to crawl into the new millennium with my first You-Tube. I am posting my small month paintings there. These are quick little warm up paintings done in 60 min. So stop by Delilahsart at You-Tube.

I’m off to Ireland to paint and site seeing with my husband Barry. So check the Web site in September and I will post a few paintings that I will be doing “en Plein Air”.
Enjoy the rest of summer and smooth sailing.

Delilah:

That is great that you have been on the cover of so many magazines this year. I admire how you manage a lot of different things at once.
