My mugs are offered online through my Etsy shop, but at the moment I've got three of them right here: Cat Momma, Dog Mom and Proud Cat Lady. I guess my only question right now is...which of my stores should I sell them in? I'm leaning toward either The Burncoat Center for Arts and Wellness in Worcester; Petersham Art Center in Petersham, or Serendipity in Hudson.

More images are in my Etsy shop, which I will link in the comments.

You know, sometimes I just need to pat myself on the back. This was a pet portrait commissioned a few years ago by a returning customer. The dog's name is Tiki so I asked her if I could make it a humorous portrait. She was happy with the result!

It still cracks me up to look at it.

I made another mug! This one is for you if you are a "Proud Cat Lady."

Question for all of you: What would be a valuable freebie that I could offer to people who sign up for my newsletter? (Some ideas are: a coloring page (for grownups or kids); a downloadable sheet of gift tags; a downloadable sheet of bookmarks that you'd print onto card stock; a discount on your next Etsy purchase, or even the honor of having your pet appear in one of my larger animal paintings. You get the general idea.

I'd really appreciate your feedback! Thank you.

I just sent out an email from my brand new platform (SquareSpace). It's a little nerve-wracking, to be honest! Anyway, it was just an uncharacteristically brief (for me!) new product announcement about my new Cat Momma mug.

If you are not on my email list, please sign up here on my web site, and if you have any technical problems whatsoever, I'd appreciate knowing so I can fix them.

Hi everyone! I have a few ceramic mugs in my Etsy shop now, and plan to add more--it's hard to choose which designs though! So if you have a favorite painting of mine and want to order it on a mug, please let me know. Note: this only works for square images. Thanks!
