Red onions #1, oil on canvas, 15 x 15 cm. ©2010 Julie Galante. [SOLD]

In my studio this week:

• I’m working on a couple portraits, such as this one; the other one is a commission so you won’t see it for a while, until after it’s delivered to the client.
• Daily paintings galore! I’ve been playing with fruits and veggies as subjects. Next up: some Munich scenes.

Other exciting stuff:

• Since I’m looking for ways to start offering prints of my artwork, I started an account at RedBubble. The community of users is quite welcoming. I’m looking forward to checking out the quality of their printing. Do you have any experience with RedBubble?
• I spent an afternoon getting lost in the Alte Pinakothek. Who knew Munich had such an impressive collection of Rubens?

What were your creative accomplishments for the week?

  Wow, I am SO impressed with you and your site! Daily paintings galore! Well, I’m creative but certainly CERTAINLY not visually. Your paintings are fantastic! Glad to see you on ICLW! I’ll certainly come back often to see your work.

  Thanks, Sharon. My recent paintings have all been oils, but I work in acrylics, too.

  My last exhibit was a couple years ago. I do sell my work; I’m currently exploring new sales channels, and hope to ultimately find a good online outlet for my work. Lots of options out there!
