Thanksgiving Contest, Layaway Available and more!

Hi everyone! Happy Thanksgiving!

I have so much to be thankful for and count my blessings daily! A year ago this week I began my first painting in 17 years! I’m so happy I was encouraged to share my work and to continue to paint. It really has been an unreal experience and I’m still surprised by what I can put on a canvas! I’m so excited for what my future holds! 

I have been really busy with my day job and also catching up on commission work! Since I managed to complete my commissions I was able to paint something I’ve had on the backburner for quite awhile! It is a 16×20 Acrylic called “Snowbuntings”!

Here is a video showing the progression of this painting!

With one year of painting under my belt, I have decided to have a contest on my Facebook page to celebrate!!!  Check it out on the pinned post at the top of my page! LIKE my page, SHARE the contest post and COMMENT for your chance to win a print of this painting for yourself and Tag a friend who will win a print of it if you are the winner!

I really enjoyed painting the birds and feel each one has their own personality! I hope you like it as much as I do! Let me know what you think!

Discount On New Orders made before November 1, 2018!
Since I am caught up on orders I can now accept new orders for commission work. And since I am celebrating one year of my painting journey, here is a gift for your! ANY ORDER I receive larger than a 12×16 via my Facebook Page  or through e-mail before November 1, 2018 will receive a $25 discount! If that order is for a 16×20 or larger you will receive an additional $25 off ! With Christmas just around the corner, I cannot guarantee I will have all orders complete in time for Christmas. Orders will be on a first come first served basis. As orders come in, they will be assigned a number which represents the order I will be painting. I will do my best to complete all orders before Christmas and the earlier you get your order in the better. This offer does not apply to portrait work.In addition, if you order any of my prints before November 30 you will receive %20 off!

Layaway is now available!

If you are looking to purchase one of my available artworks or prints or if you wish to commission an artwork but you are not in a hurry and would like to make payments overtime I can offer Layaway. Installment payments can be made over a time frame of up to 6 months. Once the balance is paid in full I will arrange for shipping, delivery or pick up. A downpayment of 30% of the total purchase price (not including shipping) is required for all Layaway orders of already created work or prints.

Layaway cancellations are subject to the following terms:

• Layaway’s cancelled within 14 days of purchase for prints or non commission originals – all monies will be returned by E-transfer or Paypal.
• Layaway’s cancelled after 14 days of purchase for prints or non commission originals are subject to a 25% cancellation fee, with the balance returned by E-transfer or Paypal.

For commission work – I require a non-refundable pre-payment of a minimum of %50 of the price of the painting. You can pay this amount out in installments however no work will start on the commission until this pre-payment is received. Commission work is generally of a personal nature and therefore it is not likely that I would be able to recuperate my loss of time or money through a resale although that may happen should the original commissioner change their mind.

• Layaway’s cancelled for commission work – all monies with the exception of the original non-refundable pre-payment will be returned by E-transfer or Paypal.
  

I hope you have had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend! Take care everyone!

Artfully yours,

Margie
