Need Info on a painter

I recently came across the work of Mary Gallagher born 1953. She is a contemporary scottish painter. Other than that, I cannot find any more information on her or her work. Does anyone have a source I can use??? Thanks...

Summer Painting

Summer, a time to breath, relax some and get in touch with where you want your art to go. I am trying to reach better markets. Does anyone have any advice??

Thanks

Creativity and a Dreary Day

As I look outside my window, today, it is dark and rainy. After such perfect weather for a week, this seems so strange. It seems to be effecting my creativity. Oh well--you can't force creativity. Guess I will go clean out a closet.
Does the weather affect your creativity? That seems like an interesting factor to explore.
Let me know.

I wanted to share my latest work with you. My work comes from photos of my travels. This one is 20X24 Original Oil on Stretched Canvas. It is titled, "Tropical Afternoon". Last summer I had the opportunity to present an education paper at a conference on Oahu, Hawaii. [Well, someone has to do it!!] As we drove around this most wonderful island, this one one scene I snapped and painting. Hope it brings a moment of respite to you.

A New Blogger

Hi everyone,
I am a new blogger and coming on line to chat with other artists. My work is in the visual arts and are mostly original oils on stretched canvas of seascapes, landscapes, cityscapes, still life and some experimental work. I have a web site at www.hooperart.com that shows all my current pieces. Since I retired 4 years ago from full-time professorship in the Education Dept. of a local college, I opened my own art business. I now produce, market, and show my work. My sales have been decent, especially in this down economic time.
Today, I am home and enjoying a most wonderful sunny day. We are trying to move to Florida so we can have many many sunny days, but the housing market is terrible. We have been listed for 6 weeks and have had no one to see the condo in 5 weeks 6 days of that. I am so frustrated, but I refuse to sit around and mope. I will continue my busy life until we sell. Then I will be busy moving and setting up my art business all over again.

Please write to me.
