With Purple On Top

A portion of the proceeds will be donated to support autism initiatives and the rest goes to Rose for supplies and shopping excursions. The moment I let her know something has sold she makes a shopping list, usually for lots more than the sale:) She is mostly nonverbal.

Title: With Purple On Top
Size: 8 x 10 Canvas Panel
Medium: Professional Grade Acrylics
Date: 2010
Artist: Rose Refour

You can find it for sale on eBay. Have a great day everybody, thanks for stopping by.

Name That Painting


The hardest thing about painting for me is coming up with a title, and since I have joined a daily painting group that task is even harder. What I have decided to do is have a contest! Help me come up with a name for this painting and if I decide to use your suggestion for this painting or any of the paintings I do this year I'll send you a reproduction of one of my works. So put those thinking caps on and help me out.

This was done using acrylics on 8 x 10 x 1/2 inch wrapped canvas. The staple free sides are painted purple. It is signed and dated on the back, wired and ready to hang. You can find it for sale in my etsy shop, with a portion of the proceeds being donated to support Breast Cancer Initiatives.

Please, please, please leave a comment with your suggestion and make sure I have a way to contact you if I like your idea. Have a great day everybody, thanks for stopping by.

Bloom

Bloom - (c)Betty Refour - 2010

One of my resolutions for the new year is to paint more. In order to help me with that resolution I joined a daily painting group here in Oklahoma. This is my first painting of the new year. I'm not sure that I will be able to keep up the pace of painting daily but I'm sure going to try.

You can find this painting for sale in my Etsy shop with a portion of the proceeds being donated to support blood cancer initiatives.

Have a great day everybody, thanks for stopping by.
