Yacht Reflection Painting wins 2 competitions on RedBubble


My oil painting 'Yacht Reflection' has won two challenges recently on Redbubble. The first was the 'Got the Blues' Challenge a few weeks ago, (see the write up here - http://www.redbubble.com/painters-in-modern-times/forums/306/topics/112431-christine-betts ) and then last night it won the Wondrous Water Challenge! (write up to follow!)
I am so looking forward to getting my new work done to see how it compares, because I think my new work is 10 times better than this!

Ebay Sales

Ebay

I have turned to my old friend Ebay to help me clear out the paintings that I picked up from Treasured Interiors that hadn't sold. I posted this one last night and I already have a bid, so that's exciting. It can be found at the address below.






I'm also posting an image of my new space. I will be throwing myself into this in 5 weeks as that's how long I have left at the Studio. I will have 12 months to really hook into it! John Squires got ready for his last show in 30 days! OMG! but then that's John Squires and I like hiw work, but I wonder how many people buy it for the celebrity factor? He'd be annoyed at that comment, but it's a fair comment, I think. On the easel is my latest boat. It is going well. It is very different from the last one and so much better. I am very happy with it, although now I look at the last one and I think it is so bad! How could I have thought it was so good? amazing!
