My art has been licensed by thousands of businesses and individuals all over the World. Usually my work ends up on a wall, but sometimes it surprises me where it will appear. A drone….Who would have thought? It’s a design submission by one of my fans/licensees. I hope they make it!

Today’s blog is not about me. I dedicate today’s post to my good friend Lianne Schneider who at this moment is in ICU fighting for her life. As a fellow artist, she has been so supportive of my work and many other creatives, both online and in person. She is a giving and kind soul. I cannot express in mere words how much she has meant to the online art community I circle in. I am asking that anyone who reads this to please take a moment to say a prayer for her healing and also for strength for her friends and family. Thank you.
I own the beautiful piece you see above titled: Between Sea And Shore. You can see ALL of Lianne’s beautiful artwork here: http://fineartamerica.com/profiles/lianne-schneider.html

“Parrot Head”
New Mixed Media Art Painting

I really couldn’t resist naming this guy “Parrot Head”. After all it is both, literally and figuratively. And I do live in paradise close to margaritaville. I’ve got tropical shirts and a hammock. I just need to turn on some Jimmy Buffet tunes and I can convince myself that it is 5 o’ clock somewhere. 😉

Since this week has been dedicated to artwork of the past, I thought I’d share a little about the history of my online art sales. I have always been an artist. But I have only been creating professionally for about 12 years. Before my career transition, I was a personal trainer, kick boxing instructor and nutritional consultant. I enjoyed working with people and inspiring them to make healthy choices in their lives. It was very rewarding and I had no plans to do anything else. However, a nasty fall that broke my left foot and a car accident that left my shoulders and neck in disarray provided me with an opportunity to choose something different. It took my body about 3 months to heal enough to even consider working again, but what happened next proved to be the best healing of all.
When I graduated from high school, I wanted to be a writer, but art seemed like a more viable option. I couldn’t have been more wrong “at the time.” I signed up for art school with the excitement and delusion of youth. I worked hard and did well. With a degree in hand and a few interviews under my belt, I soon realized that there was no money in art “at the time” so I put my dreams on the shelf and pursued other ventures.
It’s funny how a tragedy like a car accident can sometimes lead to something wonderful in your life. That is exactly what happened to me. I was broke, disabled and too stubborn to take financial aid. Then my husband asked me if I could just find a way to make 1000 per month so we could pay our bills. Personal training was off the table as my body has never been the same since my injuries. One night while searching the Internet for inexpensive business clothing, I discovered something that I had never even considered. People were selling their art Online! I was pumped because I knew it was something I could do with hard work and perseverance. I had been there and done that already. So I got that old dream off of the shelf and got going!
This piece above titled “Sleeping Beauty” is the very first painting that I listed for sale Online. It sold for 75.00 on eBay. I was hooked! And I have never looked back……

I sell a lot of artwork. These days my print making partners do most of the shipping and customer service for me. However, I do still paint a significant amount of commission work and originals. One of the joys I get as an artist is actually “seeing” my work hanging in someone’s home or office. Not many send me photos, but when they do, I am always taken aback. Why? I rarely see my work displayed. It gets painted on my paint splattered old table and then hung on messy walls until it is fully cured and ready to ship. I am a creator, so that is what I do. My collectors are the decorators and as such it is through their camera lens that I get to see my work as they see it for the first time. It’s kinda cool and strange all at once. Right there is a piece of my soul hanging in the home of someone I’ve never met. But I can see it….yes I can.
This arrived in my Etsy inbox this morning. I did not do anything to their photo other than save it to my computer and upload it here. So if you’ve ever wondered. Yes, my colors are that vibrant in real life. 🙂
