Thanks so much for the add! I have no idea how long ago it was, I've been terrible about signing in regularly. Love your paintings!!
Michele, thanks so much for all the stars and the many wonderful and insightful comments, my wife and I really appreciate that you took so much time to look at our work it really means a lot to us.
you are very welcome, well deserved. :) very cool gallery and it was fun to look through! do you both work on the same paintings together? do you have a website where i can see more of your work?
Yes we do work on them together, thanks for asking. Our website is www.RKB-arts.com there is a link for it on our Bluecanvas profile page
Thought of you when I saw this last night... http://www.lightspacetime.com/current-juried-art-competition/
oh so weird, i just saw that on facebook as well last night!!!! i had considered submitting but i'd never heard of the site before...do you know anything about them?
ok...I first noticed their ad here at BC in the events section last month...and when I looked at their site, they seem to have been in operation since at least August 2010. There is a small fee to enter works. They publish winners to FAA, and promote Artists through their monthly competitions which are juried... I am not sure yet by who... I have not seen negative press about them.... and I have viewed beautiful work from international Artists at their site....
...so I bit the bullet and entered their December Seascapes which...as it turned out... one of my works did better than I expected and achieved a fifth placing!
Michele.. I think contests can be a great way to build confidence and raise one;s profile... it always looks great on a CV ... and to potential clients and buyers... xxx
interesting. it's nice to hear a direct experience with them..and congrats on 5th!!!! i'm gonna read up more about them and i may just have to enter....deciding which pieces will be challenging......thanks sooo much for your input on this...i'm always leary with some competitions you see out there....it sounds like they are pretty legit! :)

I really like your work, it reminds me of early blue and rose picasso works
wow, thanks so much, i appreciate it. i was told once before that my work reminded someone of picasso's work...that's quite the compliment.









































Such beautiful work, you inspire me in so many ways xxx
