Daily Painting #27

“Buddha 1”

January 15, 2008

“Buddha 1” is an acrylic painting on a 6”x8” canvas. I was inspired to paint this image from a photograph I took at my friend Elizabeth’s studio. (Elizabeth Golden owns Golden Earth products… you don’t know body lotions and bath essential oils/washes until you’ve tried her products! http://www.GoldenEarth.net)

I love all statues of Buddha. This one is carved out of some kind of wood and it is beautiful! I decided to paint him in the same tones, but not to look like a wood grain though.

With the help of a bunch of Dolphin friends (you know who you are… and BIG Thank you’s!) I have decided to change the way I sell and charge for my paintings. For now, all new Daily Paintings will still go to auction at my eBay store. Any paintings that do not sell will automatically become available in my new SHOP on my web page
(GaylesPaintings.com) And the prices are going up. So if there is an active painting in my eBay store you’ve had your eye on… well now is the time to buy them. I also added a section in the SHOP on my site where I will list larger paintings for sale in the future, so stay tuned!

As usual I made a youtube video of this painting. Please feel free to watch it and also please feel free to send my little painting adventure out there to your friends and family. I don’t mind my info being circulated out there.

Some people have asked about commissioned artwork and I was booked with other projects. I will soon become available for new commissioned pieces, so if you are still interested please send me an email and we can talk!

Thanks so much and have a blessed day!

Om Shanti Daily Painting #18

Daily Painting #18

November 14, 2007

“Om Shanti” is an oil painting on an unframed, 9”x12” canvas and the subject is from a photograph I used in my video on GBH. I used various brush techniques to render the statue. Please note this painting will not be available to ship for 2-3 weeks from now. It is very wet and will stay this way for a little while. The end result is worth the wait.

It’s really weird, ever since we returned from Maui I’ve been a bit ‘razzed’. I’ve just been feeling a little stressed and I couldn’t figure out why. I talked to my business partner Dena about it and she was feeling the same way. After we talked I realized that I really need to do the morning meditation everyday to put me in a good space for the whole day. So I started an experiment with myself and am going to meditate every morning for 20 minutes. Today is day 3 and it’s making all the difference. The meditation I am doing also has affirmations, so I guess you could say I am ‘killing two birds with one stone’.

When I opened my email today I read the following quote:

“For fast acting relief, try slowing down.”
-Lily Tomlin

It’s so simple and right on target. I just thought it was nice to share this with you.

Well, that’s all for today. Have a wonderful day!!

Peace & blessings,
Gayle Etcheverry
