I love this painting! It makes me smile all over every time I look at it and my hope is that it puts a smile on your face, too. If it doesn't sell I might just add it to my private collection.
Update purchased by a collector from Mississippi 

I thought this youtube was so well put together. This is from one of my online artist friends. Any artist who has spent time packaging a painting for shipment can relate, for sure! LOL! 
Personally, my preferred method is a sturdy box with plenty of cushion material.

Greetings friends,
I have changed my eBay ID and Store name to make it easier for you to remember. It was stores.ebay.com/Blenda-Tyvoll-Art-Studio"and has now changed to stores.ebay.com/Blenda-Studio"and my ebay ID has changed from tyvoll to blendastudio. Have thought about this for a while and feel that Blenda Studio is more constistant and easier to remember. The problem is if you have me bookmarked or try the old one it comes up unavailable, so just wanted to update you on the latest.
All My Best,
Blenda Tyvoll

Observe my surroundings and try looking at what is going on around me as if I am seeing it all for the first time. For instance what would Abe Lincoln think if he was sitting beside me observing all that goes on in our world today?

The light is changing as the days grow shorter. Warm summer weather is still with us, but I feel the night air slipping into fall. Where did summer go? The same question I ask myself every year at this time. It makes my heartache that I didn't slow down, just a little bit more, to savor every moment of every day.

So much has happened in my small little art world, since my last posting in May, while it was still spring. Here are the highlights:

Spring Open Studios Tour took place on the first weekend in June. Met many new people and had a successful sale. First City Faire was on the second weekend of July and sold a painting to a local TV celebrity. Thank you Kathy for that. Ten paintings decorated the walls of Le Petit Bakery in Oregon City from June through September 1st. EOT Museum Shop in Oregon City displayed paintings and prints (sold very well, thank you all) from June through September. Currently 11 of my new works are on display at the Entry Gallery Red Soils Public Building in Oregon City, now through the middle of November. Check them out if you live in the area.

As you see, I spent my summer out in the world and away from Information Highwayland. Although its hard to beat the real world, have to admit I have missed all my friends on the net. It's good to be back.

Stay tuned, will start listing my latest works here soon. All My Best

Gerty is no longer a spring chicken. Lately she has been showing signs of old age. At times she is stiff and moves slower than usual. Gerty is our pet Rhode Island Red hen. She has been part of our family since she was a chick over 10 years ago. At one time she was part of a flock of 6 hens, but over the years, sadly, her sisters one by one ended up as night time snacks for cunning coyotes and racoons. Gerty has the run of our farm, but every night she heads for the protection of her roost inside her hen house. In the last couple of weeks though, she has been having trouble flying up onto her perch. Hunky Mr T would have to lift her up until he came up with a solution. He built a little wooden ramp. Now she can walk right up to her nesting area with no worries. Ok, so Gerty is just a little spoiled. We feel she deserves our loyalty. She has worked steady through the years providing us with fresh eggs for a decade now. Not to mention the countless plant damaging grubs and worms she has eaten, season after season, from our yard and garden.
