Forty Fridas continues.....




Here are my newest Frida Kahlo paintings. I have done these in a naive, primitive style. They are also ACEO's. I'm nearly half way through this personal challange I have set for myself.
I've found a couple of new websites for selling art, one of Artfire.com and the other is Zibbet.com. Both are free to list. Zibbet takes a percentage when an item is sold. Anyone heard of them?

Latest Addition to Forty Fridas



I have been working on different sizes for my Frida Kahlo paintings this week. These are both 8 x 10" but one is on a flat canvas board and the other is on wrapped canvas with black painted sides. These are both on auction at ebay. I'm still having serious questions about the viability of ebay as a source for artists. I looked into another site today called Artfire. It seems to be very similiar to Etsy but the basic subscription is free! Hard to believe but I think I might give it a try.

Forty Paintings of Frida Kahlo




I am now working on forty paintings of Frida Kahlo and listing them on ebay. They are in different sizes; ACEO standard size of 2 1/2 x 3 1/2", 8" x 10" and 5" x 7". I was originally planning on doing one per day but have decided that is too restricting. I am now working on the 12th painting and it's just one week into my project.
