Hello Art Lovers and Subscribers,
I'm excited to share with you this new Blick Catalog cover. If you're a customer of Blick
Art Materials, you've probably already received your big book catalog. If you look
carefully at my painting, Color Quad (below), you will see that the bottom right quarter
panel of this quadtych was used as the cover image. How cool is that?!
I have no idea how Blick came across this image of mine, or why they chose to use it
(perhaps they recognized genius). They did contact me, to get my permission.

my work has become more abstract. What I will be selling are mostly oil
paintings that are morerepresentational.
I will have many unbelievably GREAT DEALS.

Congrats on the Blick cover! I loved my copy when I got it... but I don't think I even looked to see who the artist was. (DUH)

Just placed a new order with Dick so I'm hoping they send me the new catalogue with your art on the cover! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteYou are a busy girl, people are going to love the affordable art fair, I'm hoping to be part of one going on in Nov (inside :-) ) that has the same idea.

Thanks for bringing that cover story to my attention on your blog - I always lay that catalog face up on my table and look at it - now I know why I am so attracted to it, it's your painting! Congratulations!
