Commission and Review -Modern Aspen Tree Art-

I worked on this lovely commission for a client who was over the moon happy about their original art work. Which makes me smile from the inside out. I love that I can help people decorate their homes that they are in so often and bring them pieces that will last a life time and beyond.

Working On A Commission

Working on a large commission for a lovely client today. I was specifically requested to add in colors that appeared in their recently redecorated living and dining room. This painting will be the final feature to bring it all together. I'm honored to work on this and I'm confident it will bring a lovely zen but vibrant addition to the space.

Behind The Scenes !

Here are some sneak peak looks at behind the scenes while I paint. This is another commissioned piece that was a lot of fun to create. I just know that the bright yellow hues in this painting at going to make the clients room really pop and bring a wow factor. I always love to know that a painting I created is the final piece for a room and will bring it all together. Thank you for choosing my art for your home-it truly makes me smile from the inside out.

Happy Holidays!

Commisioned Elephant

A wonderful client of mine who has purchased quite a few works of art from both my Etsy stores emailed about a custom elephant painting for Christmas for her significant other. This is the first time I ever painted an elephant and I have to say I'm very happy with the results and so is she. Win win! This is going out in the mail tomorrow and I know it will make a very special Christmas gift this year.

You can find the listing for this custom art here: CUSTOM ELEPHANT ART in a variety of sizes. If you are looking for a different animal to be painted please just email me on Etsy or at: victoriasartworld@gmail.com

Happy Holidays!

Artist Tip Tuesday-Storing Finished Art Work

Storing finished art work can be a tricky deal especially if an artist does not have a lot of space in their studio or home. It can take a bit of time and some organization (and re organization again!) to find what works for each artist.

1. Store all art work away from pets and small humans. Pet hair or smell is not something you want on your art. Make sure your space and creations do not have animal hair in them (if it's not suppose too that is! ha!) Keeping your art space clean will crack down on having to do any edits or modifications from stray pet hair later. Make sure small children (yours or others) do no have access to supplies or finished work. I've had this happen before that a piece of art was decided by a wee one that it needed some more pizazz when I turned my back. #lessonlearned

2. Store all art in a room temperature space away from heaters or air conditioners. Fluctuating temperatures can damage wooden stretcher frames, materials and other items no matter what you medium is. I had to repair quite a few canvases last winter because a storage self was too close to a fireplace. Another #lessonlearned. Thankfully it just warped the pine stretcher bars and I could take off the canvas and reattach it to a undamaged stretcher bar. Not everything can be repaired, so it's best to evaluate your space before you store and make sure it meets the room temperature rule.

3. Do not store finished canvas against another finished canvas or art work. Paintings will potentially stick together and rip off paint from one another. Use a divider between canvas, bubble wrap etc so that they are not touching and cause damage to each other-do not store in direct sun light. Drawings should be stored in plastic sleeves away from sunlight. A dresser converted to art storage can work great because of the many flat drawers you can use to store drawings and other items, supplies etc.

Hope you enjoyed these helpful tips and thank you for stopping by! Cheers -Victoria Lynn
