Three paintings going to the AAEA!

I am always thrilled to be accepted into any juried show, art is a lot like the Kentucky Derby… anything can happen so I never assume anything.  As I do every year, I entered the prestigeous American Academy of Equine Art Fall show with hopes of getting one in for the third year in a row… and to my complete surprise all three pieces entered got in!  The exhibit will be at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky from September 26-November 8, and while I won’t be able to attend this year, I will be there in spirit, and in paint!  Here are the three pieces accepted:

Dreams of Glory, 16 x 20 oil on canvas:Dreams of Glory

 Spa Day, 16 x 20 acrylic on canvas:Spa Day

 In Good Hands, 18 x 18 acrylic on paper: In Good Hands

I do have more new work to post soon, coming off a busy July into an only slightly less busy August I am finally reclaiming some momentum at the easel!

Thanks,
Carole

    I’ve been addicted to your paintings ever since I discovered you on the Equine Art Horse Portraits Artists site. I made the decision to start a new career in horse portraits (I’ve been painting all my life) last spring and was looking to see how other people were marketing their art. Yours is spectacular. Don’t ever be “surprised” when you are accepted into quality shows such as the AAEA. You more than deserve it. Good luck to you and keep up the excellent work. I love the fact that your work is realistic but still very painterly.

    I’m working on two portraits for HARPS (Hooved Animal Rescue and Protection Society) which I am going to donate to them with no copyright restrictions or royalties to do with as they wish. I hope something comes of it and was pleased to see that you are doing a similar project.

    Best wishes–

    Thanks, Alli! There’s many ways to get your work out there, just paint and get out (both in the real and cyber world) and meet people who would appreciate your work! Good luck with your donations, let me know how it goes!
