“Bee Colorful”

New Artwork

Sharon Cummings

2014

I have been as busy as a bee painting commissions and creating new art!  I am on a roll and find that I do not have as much to say right now.  So we can just play show and tell….I will show you and you can tell me what you think. 🙂

No not entirely.  I could never do that!  I will continue to create new paintings and mixed media pieces until they pry the brush out of my gnarled hands!  New photography is also coming soon!

But I am R.E.T.I.R.I.N.G. my “Pure Water” and “Black Magic” styles….it’s been an amazing 10 years with these! I’ve sold over 1200 as originals and commissions! ONLY 11 “Pure Water” left…I sold 4 yesterday! 28 “Black Magic” remain…..All are O.R.I.G.I.N.A.L.S…..And S.I.G.N.E.D…..And they are ON SALE!! When they are gone, they are gone and no more will be created!

It’s On!! This Summer has been filled with pillow purchases. I had no idea that they would be this popular! They are selling on Etsy, Society 6 and Redbubble at lightning speed. People everywhere are going crazy for artsy pillows. And who can blame them? You cannot walk into Target or Walmart and find luxurious home decor like these with so much original art. And the price is right too! Bricks and mortar stores are so limited. You only get a few to choose from. But online, the possibilities are endless!

Maybe it’s the kid in me, but I picture people all over the World smacking each other with my fun pillows. 😉

While I was working on my Three Birds piece yesterday the wheels started turning and I wondered if this could become a series.  Why yes it can!  More colorful Spring images on the way. 🙂  I created the hummingbird and hibiscus in this piece well over a year ago. People seem to like it with a white background, but I like the added interest the colors and patterns make.

I’ve got so many images to list right now it is crazy.  I still have a dozen pieces from my Transforming Energy series to get online plus another dozen or so maps.  And then there are photos!  If only one hour of sleep was enough!

Spring has sprung in Florida!  The weather is absolutely perfect.  The azaleas are blooming in glorious hot pink beauty.  The grass is greening up.  Bees are buzzing.  My orchids are budding. And then there is the pollen.  Aaaaaachooo!!  Yup, I get allergies bad this time of the year and that sticky yellow stuff gets in my nose, eyes and lungs and I spend my time indoors or masked. If I venture outside I wear a hat (so it doesn’t get in my hair), a mask and glasses.  I shower before bed and keep my sheets as clean as possible.  It only lasts about a month or so like this, but it is a wait.  What to do?  Create of course!  I love the LOOK of Spring and decided to keep it positive with this fun and whimsical piece today.

This work is a mixed media piece combining some of my Labor of Love paintings with a stock background and graphic elements.  A real joy to put together. 🙂  Enjoy!

Ok maybe it’s not a fight, but I do have an awful lot of pillows. 🙂  I’ve been working really hard to make my artwork available in more ways.  I am working with an art agency who is marketing my work to major stores and restaurants right now.  You can find me in Spencer’s and College Bookstores.  But you can also get my work on pillows, cell phone cases, etc.  These are pieces of art in themselves and can be a focal point in your bedroom, living room or how bout your house boat?  The possibilities are endless.

On Labor Day….I labor.  It is a day off for many and a time to sleep in and maybe BBQ. To me there is no better way to celebrate my labors than to create even more!  In the United States, Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of their country.

I am doing my part by contributing.  Right now I am working on a new series called the “Moda Series”.  These are modern pieces with clean lines and simple colors.  I enjoy the simplicity of them and the challenge to create balance with so few elements to work with.

Enjoy them here:
