Week 5

Welcome! This is my 5th installment for my weekly paintings. Hope you all had a healthy and happy week!
To go along with my "Impressions" theme from last week here you have
Cowboy Impressions. A very loose and hopefully dynamic smaller piece. . It is
a pastel, 8 x 10 on suede. It is fun to go a little looser when you are used to creating rather tight, detailed pieces. I want to do some more of these covering the different disciplines in Equine Sports. The WEG is coming up and I may call these my tribute to it! Wish I was able to go to it!!!
I have been on fire with my paintings lately! I am working on a large Dressage piece at the moment. You can see it's progress on my other blog--http://bdfineartstudio.blogspot.com
Was contacted by a facebook friend about a painting of a mutual friend of ours. It is a fabulous dynamic photograph of a local female jockey riding in the Lady Legends race at Pimlico. Won't say too much until some details can be ironed out! I'll keep you posted!
See you next week, for your Weekly Dose of Fine Art--remember, it's good for you!!

I am available to create a commisioned piece of Original Artwork for you!
The holidays are coming, don't wait too long!

I am so excited! This is my third entry! Week #3 of my Q-7 painting blog. I got to work on the sweetest painting of the equally sweetest dog! Her name is Alice and she is a Boxer owned by a good friend of mine, Andi. I love her expressions! I hope you all enjoy her as well.

I hope everyone has had a good week! There has sure been a heat wave here in the south. This is the type of weather that keeps me in the studio. When the winter comes it is hard to stay inside because the weather becomes more enjoyable and Florida comes to life! There are art shows, festivals, horse shows, dog events, you name it! I am ready!!

This painting of Alice is 9 x 14, pastel on suede mattboard. It was one of those paintings that just came together quickly! I LOVE it when that happens!! And she is now SOLD! I really love it when that happens !!n ;)

Welcome!

I am a busy professional woman. I have known little else than the medical field my entire adult life. Therefore it is only natural that my frame of reference derives vernacular and abbreviations from it. In medical terminology Q or q represents the word every. Thus lies the background of this blog title. I am proposing to create a painting a week, or every 7 days, for the next year. That's 52 paintings/drawings in various media consisting of mostly animals but not limited to that. (I enjoy the occasional landscape and still life and person!)

My desire is to shake up and generate some interest in my art business! I have researched and followed several daily painters. Though I greatly admire their self discipline and perseverance
I know that is too much of a commitment this commitment-phobe can promise to. Plus working full time uses up many brain cells that are becoming more precious as the years go by ;) I did think that surely I could create something every week! And here lies the seedling of my new branch!

All of these will be for sale! My goal is that most will be under $200. Oh yes, I am available for commissioned portraits of all sizes, complexity and prices. Now is the time to think about the Holidays!! ;)

Once again, Welcome!! Hope to see you often! I plan to crosspost on facebook and to open an Etsy and/or Ebay store too. If you see something you like please email me at:
