Is That For Sale? How to Own My Artwork


After I post my artwork on social media channels people often ask me if that particular piece is for sale.  It occurred to me that many of my followers, collectors and subscribers may not be aware that creating art is my full-time job – I paint for the joy of sharing my interpretations of images but I also paint because it is my business and livelihood.  So today’s blog is about how you can own my art. 

An Empty Easel Is Never Happy

To be honest I haven’t been too transparent with my loyal viewers concerning the particulars of my art.  I find that I have been negligent telling you the nuts and bolts of the painting, like the size, whether it is oil or watercolor, or whether it is actually for sale.  So, in an effort to be a better communicator, I will be posting more information about a painting when I share it.   I’ll also be adding a page with information on how to buy my work on my website.

Pricing can be a negotiable thing in the world of art.  If you send me a personal message or email I will happily give you a cost and we can come up with a final price that will work for us.  I make a effort to keep my prices very reasonable especially when selling privately and to collectors who own my work.

If you happen not to be in Central Florida, I can easily ship to you.  I have shipped my originals and prints all over the continental U.S. Items have arrived undamaged to many a happy collector.  

A Commission in Progress

If you see something that inspires you to want your own special work of art I am happy to work on an original one-of-a-kind commission just for you.  Commissions are no problem even if you live far away from me – we can email, message, Skype, etc. and I can provide you updates and concerns as I work on a piece.  



My Studio-and yes those are crayons!



If you want to just look at my work on my various social media pages and my website please do so and keep liking and sharing it – you are all a part of my process and your input helps me become a better artist.  If you live in the Central Florida area I usually am in an exhibit somewhere so you see my work in person.

I like to keep my “sales pitch” to a minimum but I don’t want to have you miss out on how to purchase one of my paintings or prints.  

And that’s the reason I like to create art – to be able to share it with you.  Thanks for being a part of my “team” and my continued inspiration.
