Card Finished. To make the dark background and the black on the bird I used a combination on windsor red ,hookers green and ultramarine blue.Hookers green and lemon yellow make the lime green on top of his head.

Macaw Card Step 1

This is a watercolor painting I have started on a greeting card. It is of a multicolored Macaw that I took a photo of during my recent visit to San Jaun, Puerto Rico. We visited "The Gallery Inn" which is a great place to visit and stay if you are able to stay there. I was on a cruise passing through but had to visit. The Owners are artists and even make their own pottery. The sculptures are wonderful and there is Art and beautiful birds free in the Inn and court yard. This guy was very friendly and posed well.

Poster from opening at Klausen's Gallery Oct.15/10

This is the second opening/Gallery Hop that Klausen's Gallery on Prince William Street in Saint John , N.B. has featured our artist trading cards for sale.

This poster has four of my cards on it and the previous one had my cards on it as well.

This is a great opportunity for a collector to purchase small works and also makes original works available to the masses.

Klausen's also has clever unique frames available for these works. He has catalogues on site with works by saeveral artists.

This Wednesday the artists are getting together to trade cards amongst our selves and brainstorm ways to promote our art.

Anyone interested in purchasing cards can e-mail me at jocelynbichard@g-mail.com. I sell mine for $25. and c an do any subject you are interested in. I would also be interested in Trading card with fellow artists

Artist Trading Cards

The Artist Trading cards measure two inches by three inches and so far this is the only card I have been able to photograph with any sucess and even this is a bit blurry.
I have landscapes as well as animals and flowers available.
the opening is May 7th but what does not sell that night will be at Klaussen's for the month of May.
It is an art form that most people could afford and it is fun collecting other artists cards!!
I will try to photograph others if we get a bright day before I take them in.

Opening of Artist Trading Cards Show May 7th

I have been working on Artist Trading cards for the last couple of weeks and only tonight went back to my other works.

Two in the middle of this poster are mine.

I will post the ones I painted this past week next chance I get.

Hope if you live locally you can attend. It is Gallery hop night and the Friday night the Art show opens at Netherwood in which I have three Paintings.
