 Janice Bartholomew submitted her photo of the Warby Hut to my fan's photos and I chose it as the winner of the Signed and Numbered 1/25 Limited Edition Print. 216mm x 279mm from the Original Art Work, thay I have just painted from her own photo below. There will be 25 limited edition prints made from this art work, enquiries welcome for pre orders. Two of corse are already 'taken', one for Janice and one for the artist. Price for the limited edition signed and numbered print is only $40. for Australial delivery. The original is on 300 gram textured watercolour paper A4 size and is avalable for $400. including packaging and postage. within Australia.  This is the photo entered into my Kathy Shell facebook page, fan's photos by Janice Bartholomew was my pick as the photo that will inspire an original painting by me for me to send a signed and numbered limited edition print from the work to the provider of the photo. Janice I need to organize the prints, this takes a while, just like may art these days, but it is happening :-).  I did not copy the photo literally, more 'used it' as reference to work with my own memories of this area that I drove through just over a week ago. I went for a more atmospheric haze and golden glow over ultramarine blue shaddows. Having the images of Warburton fresh in my mind and having camped overnight close to this area and soaked up the scenery in my mind, partly influences my choice, as there were some fantastic photos sent in and some may STILL BE CHOSEN to follow this one, as my reward to my kathy shell page fans. You are invited to 'like' my Kathy Shell page on facebook to be involved in the competitions I run and when the number reaches 200 people, I will draw and paint another fan's photo and forward the signed limited edition print to the winner. International fans may enter my competitions but I only cover the postage within Australia, international shipping cost must be paid by the winner or I am happy to post to any address within Australia, for them Kathy Shell on Facebook Hot Off The Print Press. 02/08/2010
 Postcards, Gift Cards and Fridgemagnets from my original art work. They have arrivedJ. I have been to the printers and picked up the postcards, small business card size fridge magnets and the small gift cards I had made from the original pastel artwork of the two young brothers, playing in the sand. The first to receive some will be the boy’s mum J and a good friend. J. Anyone who survives my dyslectic talk, becomes my good friend, lol, last night I told her someone was armless, when I meant harmless, and I told her I would test her, when I meant I would trust her. Lol, J somehow my friendships survive my dyslectic errors and my waffles. These young boys, remind me of my own daughters playing in the sand, back when I was working for practical purposes, mostly with their needs in mind, the family home, term life insurance, the children’s education. It is wonderful to be a senior, still blessed with the memory of my children when they were young, but with none of the responsibility. I can paint for the love of it these days and not concern myself, about the sale or need to earn an income from my art, as I once had to. Mum of two beautiful brothers, J, your parcel will be off in the mail soon. Thank you for providing the great image for me to paint.  Working in pastel, on the original.      A blog in photos. Two early evenings of work, one hour sketches in Artist's Soft Pastels. Images are copytight to Kathy Shell. Art fridge magnets, gift cards and Birthday cards will be made from these images and can be ordered from the artist when ready, see. http://www.fridgemagnetart.com and http://www.cards-art.com | Kathy Shell on Facebook What is RSS
