…get your art shop on!
Rather than support the big chain stores this holiday season, why not support your local artists? I’ll even make it easy–I’m offering Holiday Specials this Saturday, December 13th. Why not do all your holiday shopping in one place?
So what kind of stellar deals can you get with N.C. Winters?
How about 10% off all fine art from 2008?
Or 15% off all Custom Vinyl?
Or 20% off work from 2007 & earlier?
How about original works under $100?
How about prints, digital prints, and sketches from $10-$50?
How about Christmas cards for $10?
Have you lost your mind with excitement yet? Can I make an entire post with nothing but questions?
There’s no better way to fill out your holiday shopping lists. Trust me, I’ve done the research. Local shoppers can come to my studio at Distinction Gallery in Escondido from 6pm-11pm Saturday, December 13th to take advantage of these great deals. For those who are interested in buying from afar, just inquire via email about prices/availability and I will honor the sale discounts for you folks as well. (Shipping costs will be added to final price). And Etsy buyers can buy the items listed in the shop with free shipping until December 15th.
This holiday season, don’t support corporate America–support me!
P.S. You can see pieces being offered for sale HERE. Or you can click on the handy new tab at the top marked “art gallery”. Whoah, when did that get there? (note: sketches & digital prints not shown on the gallery).

…just in time for the holidays.
Ginger has been working very hard coding up a new gallery page and some show info for our holiday sale coming soon. We’ll have plenty of art available for discounted purchase this upcoming Second Saturday opening at Distinction Gallery (where I have my studio). We’ll also have an email blast, so if you want to be in the know, but are currently not receiving our monthly (or so) updates about shows, sales and new art, feel free to drop me a line, and I’ll add you to the non-spamming list. Meanwhiles, enjoy the next Creative License up Wednesday at creattica.com

…they’re the funnest kind of person to draw.
Yes, I am co-organizing a figure drawing session scheduled for tomorrow in my studio. It’s a three hour session, not a bad time period for my first one in a few years. Figure drawing is one of my favorite things, and not just because of the nude model. To tell the truth, it doesn’t matter much if the model is male or female, though female models are a bit funner, mainly because I focus on women in my work. People are always asking Ginger if she ever gets weirded out that I spend hours staring at naked women, but she’ll be the first to admit she understands that the models are naked “people” for about 2 minutes before they become elaborate still lives.
It’s our first organized figure drawing session in the studio. Hopefully if it goes well, we’ll have many more and be able to have them more often. Should be fun, I’ll try to post pics of the session later.
Happy Friday.
