Just One More print

I have been tooling around with my appletini painting to make some fun and colorful poster prints. Starting tonight, these prints will be available at Henri’s Just One More in Eureka Springs, AR where I got turned on to the appletini and where my painting this artwork is based on hangs. I’ll post again to [...]

Appletini print ready to roll

I’m pleased with the mellow feel of the background and the looseness of the text and I am ready to get these printed and packaged for sale. I’ve also been working on a wilder design based on the same painting and I’ll post that later. The first prints will go on sale this Friday night [...]

A Gallery of the Arts

During last September’s Studio Tour, David and Anita Wolf came by my studio, admired my paintings, bought a little something for themselves, and invited me to check out their gallery in Claremore, OK and consider offering my work there.  A Gallery of the Arts is in an incredible historic building which David and Anita have [...]

standard frame sizes and square paintings and prints

I wrote this post back when my printer was new and I was involved with a couple groups of artists looking into offering prints of their paintings. I have been waiting to post it until I had a photo of some of my framed prints. I finally took one at last Friday’s Holiday Sale and [...]

Holiday Sale and Party

I finished the postcards/fliers for my Holiday Sale and Party on Friday, December 14th. Tomorrow I am going to put some colorful lights on the outside of the studio. I’m considering my options for the yard and patio and I think I will make luminarias/farolitos for the pathway and maybe set up a small, [...]

offering fine art prints of your paintings

There has been some discussion among the members of the Visual Artist Street Team at Etsy regarding the decision to offer prints. I was writing the group a really long letter about my decision to offer and create my own prints when I realized that I have learned quite a few things about the [...]

comparison of four papers for fine art prints

I promised to show some of the different papers I have experimented with as I begin producing some of my own fine art prints. I took this photo under a cloudy sky with the papers resting on a blank canvas. I found it interesting to see that the Somerset Velvet White is the [...]

White Street Art Walk

Last night’s White Street Art Walk was fantastic! It’s one of the best attended local events so I got to visit with lots of friends and people I see just every so often. My talented and funny photographer friend, Jim, crawled out of the woodwork and took some awesome shots, including the one above. [...]

rat-a-tat-tat print

I’m taking a quick break from framing and packaging prints to do a couple things online.  I listed a print of this painting in my new Etsy shop.  I’m still waiting for my first sale from that shop and the key on Etsy seems to be to list regularly so as to avoid being buried [...]

here’s one of the new prints

Here’s one of my new prints. It’s 8″ x 8″ to fit a standard frame. Click on the image to see it in my Etsy shop. Short post tonight… I went to a high school band concert and am about to play a couple rounds of Boggle Master before packaging up my new prints and [...]

now I’m a fine art printer!

After pricing fine art prints and then having a print job come back to me with the colors way off, I decided to improve my printing capabilities. I can now offer prints of all my paintings! It’s been amazing to see the quality of these prints and so much fun to watch a [...]

getting my shops in order

I have opened a second shop at Etsy, KathrynSemolic.etsy.com, for my paintings, prints, and cards. Each day I add several items to the shop. Large blank greeting cards suitable for framing start at 5.25, small unframed prints are typically under $20. Original paintings range from $110. to $1200. Soon I will be [...]
