The Gallery also hosts a monthly market in their parking lot that I hope to attend when schedule permits. Definitely give them a follow over on FB and help them grow:

They just opened a couple of months ago and could use the signal boost.

If you're in the Fayetteville, Georgia area, stop by the Staffords Art & Crafts Gallery where you can see 3 of my original paintings from the Birthstone Goddesses series on display, as well as a few of my matted signed prints on offer.

Photos never do these paintings justice with all their shine!

Sorting out what goes into a local gallery today. How exciting! It's nice to think this work will be seen in a dedicated art space by people outside of conventions, as my con appearances will be rare again for a little while.

A closer look at this piece.

"Angel of January", 16x20 in, Digital painting in a hand-embellished mat on which I’ve drawn delicate metallic gold feathers.

Created as an exploration of themes that would become the Birthstone Goddesses. I moved away from angels, but still enjoy this first concept.
