Free Greeting Cards!

FREE Greeting Cards! It's even closer to Christmas -- time to think about holiday wishes for the ones you know and care about. With times being tight, online greeting cards are a great way to share with your family and friends. The site is very easy to use. It even features a "fancy editor" that lets you style your words with finesse. Nine festive images are available, with variety for every flavor, including the "Crabby" one featured here. The original, "Crab in Space," has a layered background that adds dimension to the space in the background, and the crab's texture is captured with a rich impasto. I was really pleased to capture the distinctive blue of the BLUE crab that you see on his legs.  You know the best part? He was delicious! I hope you'll take advantage of this truly original greeting card offering! It's not too early to spread some holiday cheer... -- My Greeting Card site at  http://tinyurl.com/scottplastergreetings original "Crab in Space" available in cards and prints

Last Day to Vote!!!

What to Paint?

OK, Christmas is coming up, which gives me some time to do a few (hopefully) paintings. I've also been able to paint on weekends. I have a few ideas in mind (shown below). What do you think? What should become my next whimsical animal? Use the poll on the left hand side of my blog page to cast your vote!

"Old Fashioned Christmas," from Artist Scott Plaster

It's not too soon to send one of my FREE Online Greeting Cards. The site is very easy to use, and you can customize the message and even get a notification when it is "picked up." They feature nine different images from my artwork, including "Sauer's Kitchen" in the card below. I call the greeting card "Old Fashioned Christmas" because of its old-fashioned subject matter and nostalgic feel.

The original painting is a watercolor and mixed media from a series I did a while back using a similar technique. It is hanging at Artwalk in Boone (and is 20% off this holiday season). I already have prints on the way, and will mat them to a standard-size 16" x 20" and put them in a rustic frame. 

I hope you'll take advantage of this truly original greeting card offering! It's not too early to spread some holiday cheer...

I'm really happy to announce that I've developed an online greeting card application incorporating 9 of my artistic works. The greeting card website works just like ones you've seen at hallmark.com, 123greetings, etc., except they are free of advertising, very easy to use, and they feature images of my paintings. Your message is completely customizable and you can send a card to multiple people at once. You can also get a message when the card is picked up.

I'm offering this service completely free of charge during this holiday season, and have 9 different holiday images to choose from. I'll offer other holiday cards (birthday, Valentine's, etc.) as time rolls on. Images include some of my whimsical animals, two landscapes, and my latest still life.

I hope you'll take advantage of this free service. Send as many as you want, and hopefully your recipients will, too.

Still Time to Vote -- What Should Scott Paint??

This White Ibis lives in Florida and was doing his best to snatch food from wherever / whomever he could!

How could you vote for such a thief, when an innocent little duckie or doggie is vying for your vote?

If I do paint the Ibis, somehow I'll capture this wary, sneaky nature. But if I do, the doggie will have to wait, and so will the duckie, and the seagull.

Vote for your choice now (to the left). 

No One Loves the Adorable Little Doggie???

"Still Love Me?"

How cruel! I can't believe that little Millie here has so few votes. I know, I know.... yet another dog painting! Well, you should know that I don't do pet "portraits." Anyone who has seen "Miami Lewie" or "Cry Baby" knows that.

Millie is a cute little terrier owned by my friends Perry and Susan. If you know them, you probably know some of the stories. Millie has been known to chew up just ONE each of many, many pairs of shoes, and basically anything else chewy or leather-like left anywhere where she can grab it.

One day, they came home to discover that Millie had taken a FULL 2-liter bottle of soda, taken it into the back yard and buried it neck-up with just the tip left out of the ground.

How adorable is that?

Perry and Susan would really like a painting of their cute little doggie. I think this pose makes her look especially "whimsical." I would be sure to show her curly tail at the top. I am thinking of surrounding her with pink.

Vote for her now (to the left).
