Finished. 3rd and last of the Tea party paintings. I hope you enjoy it. (these are all acrylic on canvas- size 16x20) This is titled "A Sharp Right Turn." As I have posted before each of these paintings have a portion of one of the three statues that make up the Grant Memorial directly in front of the Capital. This particular painting depicts a team of horses pulling a cannon. The flag man is signaling an abrupt right turn to the team and the horses are in the midst of that turn. Photobucket

I actually started this series around Oct. of last year. I've enjoyed doing them but am ready to move onto something different. Here are the other two. (Freedom's Son and Lady Freedom.) I know I've posted these frequently over the past several months as I have been working on them. I have received a lot of nice comments and some occasionally good criticism. This is the last time I will be posting them. I've really enjoyed doing these and the feedback I've received. If you want to copy these to have them on your pc, feel free. I've had a few requests if it's ok to use these for your blogs and so forth. That's ok with me, all I ask is link back to this thread or my blog http://jellytoast.wordpress.com/ and give me the credit. Thanks!

Love it. From a sales perspective you might consider keeping on going and offering them for sale. 3 paintings isn’t enough to get anything going in terms of value or sales.
