The Crazy Discount is Back!

Every Christmas Season I and my talented team of artists participate in
a Fine Craft Show at Rolling Oaks Mall in San Antonio
<https://rollingoaksmall.com/> , offering Detailed Pencil Portraits as
well as Quick-Sketch portraits and caricatures. When the international
success of over 30 years of commission work led to higher portrait
prices, I found I had out-priced much of my local clientele.




Last Season, in an effort to put a shot of adrenaline in the Holiday
sales books, we came up with a ridiculously amazing Special Holiday
Offer for all Pencil Portrait Orders!

It Worked!

Last year's Crazy Holiday Craft Show discount of 50% off all Pencil
Portraits was a frightening concept, but because of all you wonderful
deal-loving clients, we had an unbelievably successful season, almost
doubling our sales from 2015!

So We're Doing it Again!

50% Off All Pencil Portraits!!

This will put the Quick-Sketch Portraits at what my original portraits
were when I came to Texas, and the Detailed Portraits will once again
be as low as they were 8 years ago!

We really love this Holiday Craft Show that has been a part of our
business for so many years. And we really love the opportunity to make
you happy with a hand-drawn portrait of your loved one or pet. And we
want to keep this opportunity affordable for more people, at least at
this time of year.

Don't Wait! Order Now!

This insane deal is happening only during the Christmas Craft Show at
Rolling Oaks Mall in San Antonio <http://rollingoaksmall.com/> ,
December 8-24, 2017.

"X O" (pastel, 12x6 inches)

Just in time for the Holidays, my recent painting "X O" (aka "Biker
Santa", lol) was juried into the International Association of Pastel
Societies 31st Juried exhibition, the 2017 Web Show
<http://iapspastel.org/exiaps_previous.php> .




("X O" returned from the Connecticut Pastel Society's Renaissance in
Pastel 24th Annual National Juried Exhibition in October with the CPS
Memorial Award!)




This acceptance into the IAPS show brings me one point closer to IAPS
Eminent Pastelist <http://iapspastel.org/honors_ep.php>  status!

Daily Paintings November 2017 - Poster!

<http://ritakirkman.fineartstudioonline.com/workszoom/2564042> 	 

Last month was my fourth November in a row to complete a
30-Paintings-in-30-Days challenge. It's always a great boost to my
creative drive, and my business! (Not to mention I become just a little
bit of a better painter with all that constant practice!) I'm trying to
figure out which other month out of the year I can add to this
tradition... Just think, if I add a month each year, in just over a
decade I can be a true "Daily" Painter! ;)
