 "The more one does and sees and feels, the more one is able to do, and the more genuine may be one’s appreciation of fundamental things like home, and love, and understanding companionship." Amelia Earhart 

 

 What a wonderful quote to go with this posting.  I actually lived near Amelia Earhart's child home, where she was raised by her grandparent's during the winter months.  It is in Atchison, Kansas.  I was living in Leavenworth, Kansas, at Fort Leavenworth at the time, when I learned about her home and where she grew up. You can take a tour of the home and learn a lot of interesting facts about her childhood.

I have completed the Alberta Street series! I have one series left to make into a complete series.  It is the Stars in July painted houses. 

I will work on those the next three days and then start some new house series.

 

I think I have found a location for my show this winter...more to come on the details!  Very exciting!

If you have not yet reserved your painted house, you still have time, although many are spoken for! Thank you to all who have reserved a house!

Hi!

 

I am working on completing the Alberta Street series.

I hope you enjoy house #158!  This series was inspired by the neighborhood I lived in, in Portland, Oregon. If you ever get a chance to visit; it is a whimsical, funky, artsy, and vibrant community with lots to explore.

Check back on Monday to see three more painted houses in this Alberta Street series.  I don't post houses on the weekend...but I can't wait to share with you on Monday.

House #50 - Rain 5

A Painted House A Day
House #50
Rain 5

I must have called the rain to Central Texas! Ever since I started this rain series we have had some much needed rain storms.
I love the rain...and even more now that I live away from Seattle, where I grew up.
I came across this qoute and it reminded me of how I feel about being raised in Seattle and living with an abundance of rain.

"I miss it if I'm not in it for any length of time;  I don't feel comfortable.  I want trees and I want frequent rain." -- Murray Morgan

Pre Order Your Favorite Art House

Today marks day 50 of, A Painted House A Day!  This should mean that I will have painted 50 - art houses.  I just counted and all 49 are here (thank goodness) with house #50 in progress!   Some are painted on paper and most on canvas.
Pretty exciting!

I am posting some photos of the 49 art houses. These are in order with house #1 in the upper left hand corner ( Yellow House #1.) I started this project with painting Yellow House #1 on March 24th, 2014.

I can now fill up my square table with all 49 houses! I think I will need to come up with another form of display. I can't wait to see all 183 Art Houses displayed together. It does seem like a big task in front of me, to create this much art - and everyday! I feel pretty confident in getting it done and take each day as it comes.

ART HOUSE PRE - ORDER INFORMATION :
I soon will be posting pre - order information for those of you who are interested in purchasing your favorite original Art House. I plan on keeping all 183 Art Houses until I have my final show... Wouldn't it be fun if you could attend! Maybe you can!
I will announce the location for the show as soon as I finalize the details.
Please check back soon for pre order details as this will be first come first served for Original Art House purchases. Signed prints will be available for purchase as well.

Please feel free to leave a comment with any questions.
Thanks for your support.

Have a creative day!
Christy
