These are all posted to my tombloodart.com ASF website and promoted on Insta and FB - yet I've never had so much as a nibble on getting prints of any of these. Meanwhile, I sell prints almost daily of some of these images on other sites that I don't even promote. What am I doing wrong?

Prints from the past, posting #8. Dry point technique takes time to build through hatching and cross hatching lines to create contrasts. I took my time on these prints as I was in my advanced class and was more comfortable with the media.

Hi! I need some advice. I’ve been invited to live paint at a fundraiser and I am trying to make a list of everything I could need. I’m an oil painter and I’m painting a 3’x4’ canvas. All advice is welcome!

Thank you!

Seated Nude Study

Post image 1

"Seated Nude Study" presents a minimalist figure seated against a vivid blue backdrop, where contrasting simplicity and bold color meet. The nude form is depicted with subtle shading and a focus on natural contours, while the absence of facial details invites curiosity and introspection. This piece offers a quiet yet striking addition to any space seeking a blend of modernity and classic nude study.

“A Meeting Beneath the Flowering Sky”

Among flowers, storks and trees, two people meet. They hold flowers in their hands, as if exchanging not merely a simple gesture, but a small fragment of their own worlds. Around them, nature unfolds without hurry, while airplanes cross the sky above — a reminder that beyond this garden, the world continues to move endlessly forward.

The painting becomes a meditation on a moment suspended between what is eternal and what is passing. The trees root us in the earth, the storks speak of return, while the airplanes suggest departure, distance and the endless search for somewhere beyond the horizon. The two figures stand between these forces — between roots and the sky.

Perhaps this is why the meeting itself becomes the heart of the painting. In a world that never stops moving, the most precious moments may be those in which we pause beside another person and simply offer them a flower.
