Early spring paintings

I hope you've been getting signs of spring where you live! I've mostly been working on  large paintings for a gallery show in May, but just had to take time out to do some small spring paintings. When daffodils and pansies bloom--you must pay attention;) It's a way to celebrate the renewal and promise of spring. I have just now added them to my Etsy store and you are the first to know. Since you're a blog subscriber, you get an early heads up to the 15% off Etsy sale I'm having from now until March 18th. This will include almost 30 paintings and several postcard sets too. My Etsy Store

This group is in the mail to Anne Irwin Fine Art. They are located in Atlanta, Georgia and they sell online as well. These will be added to the other work on their website here shortly. Thank you for following my journey in art and your kind interest. Blessings on you and yours this season and always.

Hello everyone! I have been posting ongoing work on Facebook and Instagram because it's so much easier to upload from my phone and I've been super busy. I still love having a blog and appreciate you very much for subscribing. Time for a little catchup. Some of the paintings in the top photo have sold but you can find a few in my Etsy shop. Also, I'm excited that a couple of these are headed to Beaudry Gallery in Dallas.

The two bottom paintings are available online at Ugallery here: https://www.ugallery.com/artist/Polly-Jones
