"Tuscany Sunshine" This is a commissioned canvas I made for someone after my art show. It is 9" x 14" I hope she likes it...she is a quilt artist and designs some very fantastic quilts of I am a little intimated. This is a lot harder than I thought. I think I would rather just make something and sell it if they like it instead of a special order.....a lot of pressure. I am working on the second canvas and it is commissioned also. Even more stressful as it is someones grandson with a specific theme...STRESS.....I have to admit tho, it is nice to finally be making some money with my art after all these years. Anyway it is really still fun and I think she will like it..I had her e-mail me three photos so I could pick the one I wanted and also get a little personality from them. It is in progress but I will share it with you when finished. Have a Artful weekend. Diane

Hi Diane,
Thanks for visiting my blog! I just thought i would let you know i was here and that i love your blog. Your work is beautiful! I hope you DO get to see Bruce Springsteen someday soon. His performance is electric!
i hear you diane. it is a lot of stress. that's why i stopped doing so many of them. now i only do ones where people say you can make anything you want to. you did a beautiful job with your canvas!
Diane,
Tuscany is one of my favorite places. You have captured the essense of the Tuscan sun perfectly. Warm, but not oppressive.....lending a rosy glow to everything it touches, making one want to do everything (al fresco) outdoors in the open air.
"Tuscany Sunshine" is a beautiful piece. I'm sure that your client will be thrilled. I know I would be.
Best Wishes,
Kay
Love all the little details on this! Beautiful colors, texture, perfect with the image! Awesome!
Well, would you look at THAT stunning piece! Wowee girl! It is incredible!
I have just done my first few commissioned pieces and let me tell you, it is not easy. I agree with you but you are fully capable of doing it and doing it well. I bet the more you do it, the easier it will get. This coming from someone that has a hard time even doing a themed swap! (which is a commission of a sort) My brain works a whole lot harder. But, you do so many things so well, I think you will do very well in commission work and you COULD and probably SHOULD charge more! Congratulations to you, dear lady! I just love seeing you work and it getting the appreciation and wows it deserves!
