"Shinny in Trinity"


Received good news the other day! 
This painting is going to be licensed by the German puzzle manufacturer, 
"Ravensburger" for a 1000 piece puzzle! 
They said it was to be directed mainly at the Quebec market. 
I am very excited. Puzzles for Christmas!

  3. Chrisitane so nice to see you drop by! You were one of my original blogging buddies! I am afraid i have not been so diligent in the blogging area of my life. It has kind of fallen by the way side. So many things to do! I do hope all is well with you and your busy creating many fabulous works of art. Thank you for your encouragement. Always a pleasure to see you here.

    1. Ross, I have also been neglecting my blogging, but I am doing my best to get back to it. I am using Facebook more and more...after once saying that I would never use it:-)
      You are on a real roll...good for you! Congratulations again!

    2. I think Facebook is the way to go Christiane. I find the blogging is very time consuming and is mainly to connect with other artists, such as you! Which is all very enjoyable and worthwhile of course. I maintain the blog because i am often directing clients or potential clients here to see samples of my work. It does work well for that. Facebook however is more likely to reach a wider audience and i have received fair bit of work and sales as well from there. Thanks for your visit Christiane. Happy painting!

    1. Thank you Lorraine. I have never put one together. Might have something to do with ADD. :) So glad that others like to do them though! :)

    1. Thanks Polly. I don't like to get to close to my paintings. They make more sense far away! Hope it makes for an enjoyable puzzle for the enthusiasts out there.

    1. Renee, thank you for your comment. I have never done a puzzle. I don't think i ever will as my attention span is not so good. I am so glad others like to do them though! :)

  8. This is another amazing piece of art. I just kept staring into it, letting my eyes wander around the painting, discovering all the little nuggets of wonder within. I love this so much. So it comes as no surprise that the puzzle company has taken an interest. Congratulations Ross, that's wonderful news! Let us know where we can buy one once they are published!

    1. Thank you Crissy! The puzzle came as a complete surprise. They called me out of the blue. Thought it was a hoax at first. We get so many of those crazy emails now one is untrusting. But it was legitimate and i am working on another for them just now. It is being published in January. Thanks for dropping by! I am not on here as often as i once was.

  9. Hi Ross,
    Thank you for your wonderful comment on "Catawampus". I really am enjoying the freedom of the poured watercolors right now ... looking for more light-filled subjects. :)
