I've been so humbled and loved by the support of friends and family with my recent winter sales. I've kept the local shipping store on their toes with my odd-sized painting boxes across the United States.
"Brushstroke #4 - Growth" by MaryLeaHarris
My first painting shipped to a dear friend, Sallie D. in Virginia. "Brushstroke #4 - Growth" (Mixed Media 10" x 10" 2015) was meant to be hers and will soon be traveling with her as she starts the next chapter of her life in North Carolina. She and I met while teaching art in the public school system in Virginia and have been friends for over 15 years.
"The Unreliable Narrator" by MaryLea Harris
My second painting went to the home of my in-laws in Texas. Bev and Bill H. have been two of my biggest cheerleaders since my first art show. They have collected several of my paintings over the years and I was so excited when they said they wanted to add "The Unreliable Narrator" (10" x10" Acrylic on Canvas, 2015) to their collection.
"Chasing Starlight" 2015 by MaryLea Harris
My third painting sale was a big one, "Chasing Starlight" is a gorgeous rainbow filled 36" x 36" piece I completed in 2015 that traveled to live in Maryland with Helen and Clark R. Once upon a time, another lifetime ago, we were neighbors in Aldie Virginia. We have kept in touch via social media and the internet and I was so happy to see my painting travel to live in their lovely home.
"Citizen of the Planet" 2015 by MaryLea Harris
My fourth painting, "Citizen of the Planet" (Mixed Media, 24" x 30", 2015) went to live in her new home in Virginia with another former neighbor of mine, Barbara T. I was so flattered when Barb reached out and added my painting to her collection in her home.
