10/19/2017 Historic Fountaingrove Round Barn burns - painting to raise funds for fire reliefRead NowCAPTURED FOR POSTERITY: The Fountaingrove Round Barn as we will fondly remember it.... painted earlier this year in the spring of 2017. I plan to start taking orders for small (7"x7") fine art giclée reproductions of this painting during Sonoma County Art Trails this weekend. All money from the sale of this reproduction will be donated to Redwood Credit Union North Bay Fire Relief Fund, which guarantees 100% of donations directly aids victims in our community. Please use my contact page if you are interested in placing an order. I have prints on watercolor paper in stock. Prints come complete with archival mat - to fit a 12 x 12 inch frame (standard size - readily available). Shipping available with tracking for an additional $7 Suggested donation is $50 for matted, ready to frame print ($40 for unmatted) ... it's all going for a great cause. Thank you. UPDATE: As of 11/24-17 Round Barn prints are also available at Upstairs Art Gallery, 306 Center Street, Healdsburg. Open 11-6 daily. The original painting has just been purchased, and 100% of the money has been donated to Art Trails Artist Relief Fund. You can still see the original painting at my Sebastopol art studio during the 2 weekends of Sonoma County Art Trails October 21/22 and 28/29 before it goes to its new home. INFERNO: So sad.....Fountaingrove Round Barn, Santa Rosa, California - razed to the ground during the devastating wine country wildfires of October 9 2017. Gone but not forgotten... Recipe: Take one real grape leaf. Cover leaf with liquid latex and press leaf onto watercolor paper. Press down to 'print' the leaf. Let dry. Remove leaf. Paint with watercolor - the latex will preserve the veins and leaf shape. Remove latex. Collage with rice paper. Have fun adding color with watercolor, acrylic inks, water soluble crayons - designing a colorful background. Voila! Available at Upstairs Art Gallery, Healdsburg.
