Cup of Hot Steaming Coffee Fine Art Print

Hello from Virginia! 

Well, here it is Monday again, gee, Mondays do roll around fast don't they?

So, I would like to offer you a steaming hot cup of coffee or if you prefer tea that will be fine.  And if you don't mind I'm going to kick my shoes off and relax while I write my blog.

On my website I sell My Fine Art Prints and each print that I  published also has a greeting card with the image of the art print on it. This card has  a cup of steaming hot coffee setting on a table with two juicy orange slices on the saucer.... Don’t you think that a steaming cup of hot coffee would get your day started out just right and then finishing off with a great tasting slice of orange, wouldn't that put a smile on any one’s face?

The card is blank inside so you can write a personal message in it and it has a white envelope. The image has been professionally printed on 110 lb. card stock, size of card is 5” X 7” with a Mat finish inside and gloss out side. My name is on the back of the card.

You can give this beautiful art card to some one that you care about just to say hello and add some cheer to their life…

Or mat and frame it to hang on your own wall or use as table art...

Dessie Durham ~Artist

Eclectic Oil and Acrylics Still Life Art Work

Art Blog, March 15, 2012 my very first blog by Dessie H. Durham, artist always in practice!

In Dessie's Eclectic Oil and Acrylic Still Life Art Work, I share a cup of coffee or tea! 

                                                                                

Hello! I would like to offer a toast to both yours and my good health.

As I sit here and blog with you I would like for us to share our first cup of coffee or perhaps a cup of hot tea. {:>) LOL.

My blog is about art related subjects and I have always painted in a traditional manner, using and easel, canvas, paints, etc, just like most of you do. 


And so that you will know I paint digitally now because I have an allergy to something in the mediums. I miss the smell of turpentine, the smell of the paints and every thing that goes along with the painting process...


Now I paint using a computer with a tablet and a stylus pen, I still use brushes, canvas, all the different paints that I can or would want to use and I love the clean up, all I need to do is click a button and every thing is clean. 

I have been thinking about blogging for sometime now, there are so many things that we can talk about, but where do I start? So I will start with today's date of March 15, 2012 it is 7 a.m., and I will tell my story the way it is!  As most of my visitors start their day with their own routine, so will I. I am retired and I am ninety- three years old. I have pretty much the same ailments as most people do, but with God's help I get up each morning raring to go. (:>)

I live with my daughter, she lives up stairs, and I live downstairs, (that's funny, don't you think?) we always depend on each other to make our lives function as it should. She is my jewel! She has a family of four cats. Willow is a feral and has a short tail; she is the mother of Wookiee. Then there is Wizard he is a Maine Coon and Wedge who is the master when he is at his home, but when he comes down stairs to see me Wizard takes control. Since I am their cat grand-mother their toys are empty plastic bottles, the center tube that my kitchen paper is rolled on, things like that, who needs to spend money for expensive toys.  LOL.  From time to time we will share more about the cats.

It is my wish that this blog will bring artisans together and we will be able to communicate with each other as we paint with our dreams, memories, history and myths and we will search out answers to some expert tips, videos and tutorials to help us along the way.

This is my invitation to you:
If you are an artist or a collector of art I am inviting you to follow my Blog so that we can both form a win/win relationship that we can both benefit from. It is my hope that if you are an artist you may find helpful information here!  I have helpful links to many problems that I can share with you.   I too, will always be seeking ways to improve on the art that I do and hope you will enjoy following me on Dessie's Blo
