MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

12/20/2017

It is nearly time for the year to end and a new one to begin and I truly hope it has been a good one for you all. Before it closes I would like to share some exciting news! My Lindart Studio was recently used for the end of a short film by the talented Writer and Director, Benjamin Mair. The film is 7 minutes long and is called 'Old Hand', a great story with a twist. It will be edited and released just in time for Tropfest and I am looking forward to receiving my copy!

I would also like to thank those that have recently purchased from my online gallery. After being featured on the home page of Redbubble, which was a great surprise, sales jumped up significantly, especially with my image of 'I Can See A Rainbow'. Many products - such as throw pillows, tote bags, posters, books and more were purchased so thank you once again to my buyers your support is invaluable. Below is a selection of some recent sales.

After 2 recent sales at GalleryOne88 I now have 2 of my Blue Mountains paintings on consignment at this amazing gallery in the heart of Katoomba. 'JellyBean Pool' and 'Nature's Window, Everglades'. This gallery is well worth a visit with 3 floors of artworks and is open this Christmas week. You can enjoy a free coffee Wednesday, Thursday and Friday night whilst you browse the works!

So as I prepare our home for family and friends to visit I would like to wish you all 'A Very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy New Year' full of everything you love. Stay well and take care and see you on the flip side. (Don't forget you can follow me on Instagram at lindacallaghanartist with posts daily on my art)

Great news for me! Delighted that my two entries SOLD at Gallery One88 Fine Arts last week. One of the finest art galleries in Katoomba it is run by Victor and Sharon Peralta. It has 3 floors of amazing artworks by local artists and more spaces to come. If anyone is visiting the Blue Mountains it is a must see gallery!
Thankful to the lovely buyers of my works I was informed that Govett's Leap Lookout went to Bathurst and Along the Creek found a new home in Springwood. Also thankful to the curators and of course the Blue Mountains Artist Network for the opportunity to exhibit in this beautiful gallery.

It has not all been roses as we have been connected to the NBN and when I say 'connected' it is with 'tongue in cheek' as we have had no internet for a week now with a fault that has not been rectified. Been very frustrating and besides using mobile credit we are now using wi-fi mobile data. As you can imagine it has been a big distraction to my creative spirit but I have managed to complete a few new works for products. I have enjoyed experimenting with ink drawing and combining it with a touch of digital magic. See below! These works are available now on many items, and with a 12 day sale at my online gallery, if you see anything you like, use the code at the top of the screen to receive a big discount of 20% and more!

Seeing as the flowers are out and about in our garden I have recently been inspired by our beautiful hydrangeas. Painted in watercolour and ink is 'Burst of Spring - Hydrangeas' and as we are moving in to the festive season 'Snowflake Tree' was also painted in watercolour with a touch of silver ink.
