Introducing The ‘Sunny Summer Special’ Series

So far this spring, warm, calm, sunny days have been hard to come by here in Saskatchewan. But today delivered, so I spent a good chunk of the afternoon sketching flowers in the Pausegarden.

To celebrate the impending arrival of summer on June the 20th, I’m offering up the six sketches I created to give you an opportunity to welcome summer to your world, too. One painting will be released each day until the first day of summer.

The original watercolor sketches are 2.5 x 3.5” in size, slipped inside a cello pouch, and mounted in a stand-up paper frame card that takes the outer dimensions to 3.5” x 5”. They are available at a sunny summer special price of $40 each (taxes and postage included). Payment by e-transfer.

Starting tomorrow, June 15th, I’ll be posting one ‘pic of the day’ on Social media (Facebook & Instagram) around 9 am.

Each painting will go to the first person to claim it by sending an email request for the ‘pic of the day’ to pat@patkatzart.com.

Good luck and happy summer to you.

I Did It & It Feels Great!

About two months ago, I promised myself that I was going to be completely ready for our Spring Artists’ Workshop Show a full ten days ahead of time. That would be today!

And as of last weekend, all the works of art are finished, framed or mounted, labeled, listed, priced, grouped to show, and packed in boxes ready to tote to the show along with the tools and equipment to set things up.

Trust me, this is an unusual situation. More than once I have found myself working on the last of the finishing touches in the final hours leading up to an event – fingers crossed that all would be ready and stressing myself out just a tad in the process.

Why so different this time? Mainly because I was motivated by a very strong ‘why’.

One Week To Go…

Black Fox Flowers

We’re less than a week away from the opening of our Artists’ Workshop 2022 Spring Show & Sale.

It’s been a fun adventure sorting through my work from the last three years and deciding what I will be presenting in the show.

Amazingly, I’m feeling pretty much ready for the big event.

Maybe that’s a result of having had the last three years to be preparing for it.

Rural Roots

If I had to choose one word to describe the work I’ll be presenting it would be ‘varied.

All of the work is watercolor – nothing has changed there.

Some is watercolor with pen and some without.
