AND THE WINNER IS...

Hello!
So after a week of intense voting, we have a winner. The winner of our "What's your favorite berry pole is...

RASPBERRY!!!


Yes, Raspberry took the lead with a whopping 8 votes! And now for second place. It was very close, we almost had a tie, but with 4 votes our second place winner is....


STRAWBERRY!!



Congratulations Strawberry on being the official second place favorite berry. Squeaking in at third place is...


BLACKBERRY!



And last but not least (please don't feel blue), the main ingredient in my favorite salad, the very lovely...


BLUEBERRY



So these paintings are my latest. The colors are coming across a little intense compared to the originals. I am working on getting my product line together for the Bainbridge Island Studio Tour that I will be participating in this summer, August 7-9. I am planning on making sets of cards to go along with prints and the originals. Being that I have never done this before it's a little tricky figuring out how much product I should have on hand. Any advice would be well received and I also would love some feedback on the paintings. I am getting very excited about the Studio Tour. I don't have a studio that is in the tour but I will be set up in a garden area of another artists studio. It will be our (me and hubby) first time attempting something like this. Designing the booth is making our brains spin with ideas. We found a really cool old window that we are going to use to display the artwork inside of the window panes. It has wonderful old peely blue paint on it. Reminds me of the boat picture I painted. As we get closer to putting it together I will share pictures. Remember to vote for your favorite berry painting. I promise we'll move on to another topic soon.



Have a great day!

BERRY-LICIOUS



Hello,



So I must ask...What is your favorite berry? Strawberry, so red and juicy...Raspberry, sweet and tender...Blackberry, all hot and bubbly in a cobbler or Blueberry with it's frosted blue skin. I love them all. Funny, I like fresh strawberries and raspberries in jam but it's just the opposite for my hubby. How about you? Let me know on the berry pole...which is your favorite. I am painting a new series of berry paintings and the winner from the pole will be shown on the blog. Can't wait to hear what you think...share the post with your friends and let's find out which berry tops the charts with our very unofficial pole. Hope your day is fantastic!
