Good morning Max and Margaret and everyone else out there 🙂

Max they are really lovely.

It was such a beautiful evening yesterday I stopped off by the pier in Southport and sketched this

Hello Everyone 😄

WOW its September already where has the summer gone …

Waving Margaret 🙂

Lovely pieces max I do like that blue colour 😄

Great ACEO Stephie 🙂

I’ve been busy painting, I have a commission to do and I have set myself another little challenge, I do love a challenge 🙂 I’m going to do a couple more of my recent Tree of Life style pictures and make a new online exhibit for my website. I normally do two online exhibit features a year so this will replace the Sunsets I did for the new Year, I am really excited about it as the Trees have had a great response so far and I’m having fun painting them …

Hope you all have a good day …

Great to see you back on the boards @teabreaks Brenda, we missed you 🙂

Hazel

well after such a hurrendous few months…hubby collapsing and son rushed into hospital for heart surgery…some good news. Our son just sent us a message and although they said 6 weeks more in hospital, he has been told that they are taking him off one of his antibiotics and reducing the other from 6 times a day to 4 times a day…and IF he gets on well and the microbiologist agrees, then he can reduce to once a day and go home in a week for treatment locally…so fingers crossed !!

Lovely Brenda 😄

I know some of you are reading the Dolls House thread I started recently and today Folksy have decided to take up our suggestion and make a new subsection for Dolls House miniatures, I know both jeanie and Stephie have listed in the section already and I have now moved my exciting stock and added some new ones today, these are just two of my new additions …

Brenda that’s wonderful news! And a gorgeous snow scene too, very ethereal.

Thanks Margaret 😊

Well done on the sale Stephie, it sounds like this new section was a very good idea.

Here’s my finished Tiger Head cross stitch. I’m glad to have reached the end of this one!

Lovely work Brenda can we not have any snow though just yet 😉

Love the beach scene Stephie, great colours

Those miniatures are fab Hazel, I have a few ready to list over there, need to redo the ones here in the new category, great news in getting a new category 🎺

Love the butterfly Margaret, I can see you’re going to get along marvellously with the artbars! Fab tiger too. My mum did a lot of cross stitch but I just don’[t have the patience.

I’ve spent a very happy evening designing a mini certificate of authenticity to go with my mini paintings. It’s super cute!

Morning All

Hope you feel better soon Max I’ve had a restless night … Lots buzzing in my head at the moment 🙂

Your work is wonderful Margaret I especially love the butterfly 🙂

Hi Stephie - I have thought about doing some certificates too, can I ask is there some reason you have decided to do this now? When I do a commission - which mostly come direct for me so not via my folksy shop, I send a printed invoice from Art In Wax so this is then a paper trail for the owner of a piece (large or small) I don’t sent invoices if it’s sold via an outlet as that would get confusing for accounting and I always send a leaflet about Art In Wax I have considered doing more of a certificate style receipt.

Lots going on this month, Art Exhibition at the Cliffs Pavilion Southend plus I’m painting for a new online exhibit for my website and still painting for the mini project next month too … It’s been great having such a lot of studio time of late 🙂
