Trick or Treat

"October Bounty" original watercolor on Arches paper 18"x24" Available for Purchase 50% off


It's October, I'm still in denial!  Where is the time going.  I have an extensive list of paintings I want to paint for competitions and I paint at a snail's pace.  It certainly is a balancing act trying to fit in all the kid stuff, family stuff and wife stuff on top of the artist stuff.  I'm sure you can all relate:)  So while I'm currently working on a commission I thought I would share an oldie but goodie, surely to have you salivating but hopefully not adding any inches to your waist.  I painted this 2 years ago.  It was fun to paint and I have it on an easel in my living room adding to the Halloween decor.  I'm offering it half price for a Halloween sale.
"Candy Apple Red" original watercolor on paper by Carrie Waller 6" x 6" Buy Now

Also for my Halloween Special I'm offering my painting "Candy Apple Red" at 50% off.  Regularly $195.00  on SALE for  $97.50.

I also thought I would share the marketing material for Randy Higbee's upcoming December 6x6 show.  I was thrilled to see he used my painting on the brochure.  Can you figure out which on is mine:))  Ha!

Also I've entered Daniel Smith's 11th annual customer art contest.  They have fabulous prizes but you the downside is you have to get votes.  So I would greatly appreciate it if you would vote for me.  Once you click on the link put Waller in the search box and my painting "Anitcipation" will come up.  Then just hit the vote button.  Thank you in advance :)

  5. Did you notice Sandra called them toffee apples


    ... that which you call a candy apple, by any other name would taste as mouth wateringly sweet! (move over Shakespeare)

    Hope they all sell!

  7. Carrie, I love October Bounty. It is perfect. Good luck on your competitions. I know what you mean about balancing the mom hat and trying to paint. As my kiddos get older, it seems like I have a lot more to manage and do as a mom vs. when they were younger. I take an open studio class weekly and know of a weekly painting group. If I go to those, then I get painting done. If I think I am going to paint at home, well... facebook, my blog, yada, yada, yada. I have also not encouraged commissions right now because I want to "free paint" for growth.
