Here's the beginning of a new series. Oh, how I adore doing little watercolors of little girl dresses.

Commission this month and A Few Paintings for Sale
COMMISSION:
I had a client this month who wanted the grand Tetons in black and white watercolors. And then she wanted black and white watercolor trees. They were about 16X20 inches.
Online Art Show:
This month I did an online art show. I was really pleased with how it went. I was really surprised to see how many people really loved the flowers. I really love the landscapes, but it was just fun to see what people like. I met my sale goal, and tried some new things.
Here are a couple of landscapes that I am selling. They are still available. Click here to see the available paintings: Libby Dibb Art Etsy shop
I feel like the picture doesn't do the painting justice because of the really pretty texture. I love this one so much. It's called "Standing Tall." I think of this lovely tall tree that stands out next to the two smaller trees. Sometimes we need to be bold, different, and stand tall as we go through our fall leaves and change. I'm really tall for a girl (6 feet), and I always felt like a head taller than all my friends. It used to be annoying, and now it's just awesome and I love it.
I love the peacefulness of this painting. Again, it has really awesome texture. Love the serenity. It's called "Solitude."

UPDATES:
This month I posted some paintings on Etsy and advertised minimally. It was a great experience to figure out how to move forward at a comfortable pace. Selling some art, trying out some marketing, and then just really enjoying making it.
Commission finished! This took me several weeks, including a vacation in the middle. This was challenging and rewarding. I had to drive up to Morgan, UT to take pictures of the valley for my client. Then I spent some time organizing the layout in my mind. It is pretty in this picture, but it's really awesome in real life.
This is an art project I helped someone with at church. My goal was just to GET IT DONE in one morning, and we did.
This is a framed painting that has been delivered to a client for their office at work. I love this painting and how it looked framed. Love those gold frames.

June and July 2017
The last couple of months I have been working on a couple of big commissions. Now I'm finished! I'm starting another commission more seriously today. I am toying with the idea of doing a little online show with the paintings I have right before Christmas, but we shall see how I feel.
I have learned to wisely limit how much time a week I will devote to commissions, which is why they take a long time. It's just nice to only commit to working on them once or twice a week, and then focus on my other paintings during the week for free expression. Both are good for me. The commission has structure and a challenge. The fun stuff helps me practice skills and just explore different subjects how I want.
