Little Winged Things

Just for fun a few little winged seed paintings, available in my etsy store.

More Sheep!

Working away in the studio, I love the on coming fall through my window. The leaves are just starting to turn. I've started a second sheep painting. There seems to be a passion for series making around here recently. Right now I think the count is 3 on going series of cabbages, sheep and winged seeds. There is a fourth in the works but I can't talk about it yet!

Bashful Apple

Just about to start my painting for the day, I thought I would drop in here first to say hello. I have some exciting news, I was accepted into a gallery that is within King of Prussia mall called Nestology. If you know of the mall you also know how many people go there, so the foot traffic is amazing. I'm really happy about this. I will keep you posted about it.

Also I wanted to let you all know that I am slowly trying to transition between names, since I was married this summer I am now Kristina Closs. Much shorter and easier than Dimitrijevic!

The Sketchbook Project

I recently heard about the Sketchbook Project (thanks geninne for writing about it on your beautiful blog) and in my usual excitement about these sorts of things, signed up immediately. The way that it works is each person who signs up gets a little notebook, which they illustrate keeping to a certain theme, I chose "in flight". There is a deadline to send them back, all of these sketchbooks then go on tour to galleries and museums and finally become part of The Brooklyn Art Library.

The day I received my little book I was very eager to begin, then the blank pages (as I flipped through them) began to stare out at me, as blank pages sometimes do. At that point I had to put it away. Its only now that I'm starting to sketch in it. I hope to take pictures as I go so that all of my readers can be a part of it as well.

Fall

I can't believe that it is the beginning of fall already! Summer seems to have gone by so quickly. Of course my summer was insanely busy, hence the not posting a lot. Lets see I got married, moved, and had a solo show.

The show that I mentioned in a previous post (at Va La Winery) went really well and is still up, it will go until October 10th so if you didn't get a chance to go see it you still have time. I also highly recommend their wine, I think it may be the best I have ever tasted. Also their website is amazingly quirky and well worth a look. Speaking of shows I recently was accepted into a gallery. I'm really excited about this. The gallery is called Nestology, located within King of Prussia Mall. Lots of foot traffic and surrounded by amazing stores.
