valentine putto monoprint draw





As I said yesterday, I have not been hearing from any of my viewers except for dear Elise at Stonetree Studio and my dear sister Barbara at Sparrowavenue. It has been somewhat disheartening reaching into the void for a response until today when Mamabeaks became the first someone who isn't friend or family to leave a comment! Welcome! and thanks so much for signing on as a follower; I am very touched.

So as I said yesterday, I am celebrating the opening of my new online store on Friday the 11th by having a draw amongst whatever names and e-mail addresses I gather on my 'comments' as seen at the bottom of this posting.  Please sign up and take advantage of this rare opportunity.

Yes it is late in the day, but I wanted something special for the draw on Saturday morning and I've finally come up with this sweet little  piece I call:

valentine putto


This is an original monoprint painted with acrylic polymer emulsion on acid-free 140 pound (300 gram) cold press watercolour paper measuring 4 1/2 x  6 inches  (11.5 x 15.4 cm)


Life is richer for those of us who keep our hearts open.  But it takes courage.  Be brave.

  1. I understand, it is hard to get people to follow your blog. Mine is the same, most of my followers are from my old Live Journal days. I don't get many comments, but I still like to post. I get so excited when someone does comment!!!! I really do like your blog and glad that I tracked you when looking at another blog. I wish more people would do that, they would find others with the same interests and things in common that way. and......... I love your art work!

  5. Lorraine,
    You have such an eye for colour and design ! I particularly love your lines in this piece. Your work is superb, among the best and I say this as a discriminating fine arts appreciator ( is there such a word ? ) unfettered by any bias. Lovely !....and I emphasize " love".
