"Hurricane" Art give-away this Friday

What a day. Sandy is making her way through. Lots of people on the east coast are experiencing some mayhem today. So this is for you. It's a simple challenge this week... actually, not so much of a challenge as it is a recognition of Mother Nature. This little painting is 2.5x3.5 inches - an abstract titled "Wind and Water" - reminiscent of the energy around us now. The tiny painting will be lovingly given to the winner of a drawing this Friday at noon.

DIRECTIONS: To get your name "in the hat" do the following: Describe, in one word, your thought for these days.

Send an email with your "thought" or post your "thought" at this link on facebook. ALL responses will go in the hat. Good luck :-), I hope you win (and stay safe this week).

And the winner is....

Well... this was a quite a challenge for some, and then quite easy for others (judging by how quickly the responses started coming in!). Our winner of the tiny Chinese Lantern is...... Bonnie David. Congratulations, Bonnie! Bonnie, could you send me a note regarding where to ship? Thank you very much. I hope you enjoy this little pop of color.
The answer to the challenge "total size of my most recent diptych" is 30x80. Thank you all for playing again. Your visual detective skills are really sharpening!
The next and FINAL give-away until December will be posted on Monday, Oct. 29 and drawn on Friday, noon, Nov. 2. The info will be on the blog and on facebook. Until then, have a great Halloween!

Special offer. At 14 Cedar Street November 10&11

I am sooooo excited about doing this show. The 14 Cedar Street Studio in Amesbury, MA is a beautiful building full of wonderful artisans.... I am thrilled to be a guest there this season. As a little thank you for coming, I am giving out one Rose Bryant folded blank greeting card with envelope (new designs) to the first 50 people at my booth WITH THIS COUPON. Instructions: You need to print and bring this image with you to get your free card. A nice start to the holiday season, I'd say!
(a little update 10/25: Printing any part of the wording in this offer or any part of the photo- "free greeting card"-qualifies as a "print". Some of you have had a little trouble printing.... hope this helps.)

Beautiful day for a give-away

Wow, THIS DAY IS GORGEOUS! The leaves are changing, the air is warm and breezy. A perfect day to offer up a little fall color. Shown is a tiny little painting of one of my favorite plants in my garden.... a Chinese lantern. I just love the pop of orange in the fall each year at my front door. The painting is 2.5x3.5 inches, and is signed and varnished. Drawing is on Friday at NOON :-).

DIRECTIONS to enter the give-away: "Like" this post on facebook AND quietly message me with the answer .... or email me with your answer. Only the correct responses will go in the hat.

The question to answer is: What is the total size of the most recent diptych I have completed? Do share with a friend who may love a colorful challenge. Good luck.

And the winner is....

So many of you responded...sometimes it gets a little crazy trying sort through the answers. Thank you all for the comments... I always enjoy the tidbits you tell me :-). Now for the winner of the greeting card.... It is Mary Sue Beeler of Clearwater, Florida. Congratulations, Mary Sue! I will pop the card in the mail.
The next give-away will be posted this Monday, Oct 22 on this blog and on facebook. That will be the third of four... so some of you still have a chance :-). Keep playing! And by the way, the clues may get harder still.
Have a great weekend.
Oh, by the way, the correct response is The Willow Shop.
