It’s spring!
Yes, it’s spring. I haven’t had a chance to do any new work. I thought I’d take you on a stroll of early spring in years past. We’re waiting for a visit from our landlord to fix the leaky kitchen sink. That’s it for now. To see more of my work, go to http://roxannebaldwingallery.com

Every So Often, Once in a While
Sometimes, I get the urge to do something experimental. No, not leaving some poor dog to starve on a gallery floor. Can you believe that? Someone actually did that. My experiments are well within the parameters of my usual style. Sometimes, they’re a success, and sometimes, damn it, they’re dismal failures: The featured picture all…

Getting Back in the Swing!
I’ve been out of the art scene for a while now, except for note cards. Finally, finally, finally, I did an full-sized original piece. It seems behind a bit of skill of my usual pieces, but then, I guess it’ll take some time to get back to speed. It’s snowing here, most snow we’ve had…

What Part of “No” Do You Not Understand?
Well, I’ve been awake since 12 am, my brain is scrambled, so it’s the perfect time to write a blog post. As for refusing other people’s ideas for drawings, here’s another one, another friend. After making loads of suggestions, she went with me for a walk in a nearby park. I spotted a horse farm,…

Is This the Real Life? Is This Just Fantasy?

In Other News
I’m still stumbling forth. I have however, completed some of the note cards I started, just to do SOMETHING! These remind me of some of the labor I did to drop retail to do something more meaningful and creative. Let’s see, ACEOs, note cards, portraits, quick sketch portraits, and the list goes on. One thing…

It’s That Time Again…
I renewed this blog again. I wasn’t sure if I was going to, it gets expensive after a while, but here I went, and did it anyway. Which brings to mind, just what was I doing over ten years when I started this blog? This was the last picture on display long, long time ago.…

And Things That Go Bump in the Night!
This is a bit of a change. I have no idea for a birthday gift for one of my best friends. Her birthday is March, so I have some time. Of course, when I run out out of ideas, art always comes to my rescue. I’m hoping my friend doesn’t look at my blog and…

Here’s A Little Story
And it goes like this… Okay, I lied. It’s not much of a story, it’s a blog post about my latest drawing. I’m coming to the end of my winter art, and my quarantine. I’m not sure what February will bring, artwise, but I do know I’ll have my foot up and ice on my…
