    I just wanted to say that I'm so impressed with your work. I was at the Sarah Mac Band CD release show at the Bookshelf and saw your work. It's really inspiring. On average, how long would one of your paintings take to complete? Were you painting them from photos or live subjects? Sarah said that you were a student of her mom's. When she walked in the room, she knew the it was your work right away. :)

    Best,

Critique of Southern Collectors Paintings

Image
BEFORE: This woman wasn't pleased being so small against the pitcher.  Having your work critiqued can be quite difficult at times. I had the opportunity to work with a writer who gives the best constructive feedback I have had in a really long time. She didn't nit pick, but rather gave helpful advice and things I could change in the paintings. AFTER: Painted over with her face instead of showing her entire self. Having to complete these paintings so quickly having her help was essential in getting the works done. I was  asked by the Thomasville Center for the Arts to complete this project. Before I left to go to Taiwan they asked to see my progress on the paintings. Unfortunately they weren't able to see them in person, but I was able to send them photos of the paintings. Most of the Southern collectors they know very well and some of the women I am working with are actually collectors themselves. While the Center is not commissioning me to paint these p...

Baby girl painting

Image
My friend and I threw an Anne of Green Gables themed baby shower for a sweet friend of ours and I painted this for her girls room.  This painting is of a scene from the Anne of Green Gables movie.   This painting is a lot different then my usual subject matter, but I enjoyed painting it and most of all I am glad that it worked well for the room. One thing this painting brought to my attention is I need to continue to practice painting landscapes so I can get better at them.   Here is a picture of the painting in the room, I love how it looks with the color of the wall and the lighting is better in this picture. If you are interested in having a painting done for you or for a gift please contact me. I am reasonably priced and can work within your budget to make a great painting for whatever you may need.

Paintings for two of my friends new babies

Image
I recently finished these paintings for two of my friends who are expecting babies soon. My friends told me the colors of the babies rooms and bedding, what they liked and didn't like and this is what I came up with.  They are both painted with oil paint on canvas. My friend wanted a painting that her kids could grow with and not be something that is only good for a couple years while they are babies.  Since her kids may share a room she didn't want the new babies name on it. My other friend gave me a verse she would like on the painting. Her babies room doesn't have a specific theme, but this elephant and basketball incorporated a fun animal her kids will like and her husband loves basketball. Here is a link to the party I hosted for my two friends with a safari theme: http://createartwithkids.blogspot.com/2013/05/baby-celebration.html Also check out my nursery painting page with other paintings I have done for children's rooms. http://kati-yates-art...
