A Painting in Progress - Finished?

Hello Everybody,


Long Time no Blog - just over a week, but it's been a hectic one to say the least. I had a couple of very urgent design jobs to do, which was good for work but not good for my painting. But they're finished now and I think my painting is too.....



See, it's on an easel, signed and everything, so it must be done.... probably just a little bit more tweaking... 
Then I must scan it into my computer with my trusty A3 scanner, set up the colour profiles to get the best print - I might put a small black border around the edge too. I won't be selling this print in a mount, so I think that a little border on the print itself might look O.K. - I'll see.
Then it's time to set up the shop - I must get the header worked out, all the key words and phrases and all the bits and pieces that go together. The one big problem I have is that I may have to be away for a short while soon (only just found out now...) - so I don't want to open up the shop, then have to put it on 'hold mode' after only a week or so.... But if I don't open it until I get back, then it will be too late to sell the prints of this painting for Halloween....
What to do.....What to do....
Don't you find that things always come together at the same time and tangle themselves around your plans? Yep.
Of course, 'Celtic Cat (that's Fluffy Wilbur to thee & me) in A Moonlit Forest' - Fantasy Cat Painting from the Moselle Valley - would probably work too. And just like a 'Dog's Not Only For Christmas', Wilbur isn't just for Halloween....
I must think it over.

Away from the studio in the Valley, things have been quietish. There are quite a few tourists about, but they're mainly interested in walnuts. For some reason this year, some people are finding big sticks and bashing the poor ol' trees to get the nuts, rather than waiting for them to fall naturally. Hey you lot - don't do THAT. It's just not nice.

Bis Bald.

Tschüss.
