Shameless Promotion, Winter Prairie daily painting by Everglades artist JoAnn Sanborn

Winter Prairie, Jo-Ann Sanborn
Acrylic on Board, 5"x7"

Christmas is coming.  Some of the people you will gift deserve something very special.  I'm going to be shamelessly self-promotional today and urge you to purchase a Sanborn painting for some special person on your holiday list. 

There's a nice selection in the studio to meet most every need.  Perhaps a neighbor has taken care of your home or a pet while you're away. Perhaps it's time to start a son or daughter collecting original artwork, or you have a good friend that you'd like to get something special for.  One of my daily paintings, framed and shipped for $150 might be just right. 

Perhaps you'd like a larger painting for  a loved one who's mentioned enjoying my work.  You can come in or call to discuss your needs and see what is available in your price range.  The current price range for a painting is $300-$4500, mostly by size.  We can talk if you'd like something larger.

Don't worry about making the perfect choice.  If the painting you chose is not perfect for the recipient, you are welcome to visit the studio and exchange the painting for another.  The choice of art is quite personal, and I want you or your loved one to have a painting that speaks to your heart!

You may be among the more than 50 people who own more than two of my paintings. Thank you! You're a collector, and it's a great time to add to your collection. I may not recognize your face, but I when we talk, I know your name and your paintings! You already know the pleasure a Sanborn painting can bring.

Original art work never goes out of style and has lasting value.  Read about the value of original art in the Collector Corner of my holiday newsletter.  Give a gift the recipient will thank you for and enjoy for years.  A Sanborn painting will bring much pleasure.   So much, that a number of people have become collectors.  I'd love to have you join them.

Oops, Beach View Daily Painting by Everglades Artist Jo-Ann Sanborn


Beach View
Sold
Yesterday turned out to be one of those days--you know the kind, when you have too much to do, not enough time, and your mind is in 10 places at once. Our Internet line had failed the day before and required a new modem, an extra trip to Naples in an already busy day. First thing that went wrong was that I mailed a deposit check from a client, yes, mailed it! UGH. By the time I realized that I had no deposit for the bank, the mail shipment had already left town. Embarrassing to have to tell the client. The rest of the day went pretty much like that, with several backtracks and errors, until we saw that big, gorgeous moon, which I wrote about and posted. Oops! Posted to the wrong blog. It went to my studio blog, at Jo-Ann Sanborn's Art and Sunshine Studio, where I talk more about my process of painting, post larger work, and post some art lessons.

So, take a look, and see what you missed. The above daily painting is there along with some comments about the moon. The moon was big, rich and lustrous here, truly beautiful, the party last night a lot of fun, and tonight's the Christmas Parade. Hope you're doing something fun and seasonal this weekend!
