Hello New Year!

Happy New Year! I am still riding a high from a wonderful Christmas break spent with my family. It’s our second year in Portland Oregon and in comparison to where I was this time last year (recovering from back surgery post move!) I am feeling great about closing the door on 2014 and saying hello to 2015.

I was almost a roll, back in the studio after the Carol Marine workshop. I completed this painting of ‘Tigger’ for a dear friend as a wedding gift early October, came home and wound up with SHINGLES a few days later! Lets just sum that experience up to, if you have the chance to get vaccinated, do it! Worst pain EVER!! Yet another reason to wave bye-bye 2014.

I was able to close the year out with a couple new landscapes inspired by a trip to San Luis Obispo County in California. Also, I finished the first commission I have taken on since I have moved to Oregon. A lovely Quarter Horse mare named ‘Sassy’. It felt good to hear happy client feedback again, after a two year break from commissioned work.

I am working towards regular hours in my studio again.  My hope is to stay injury and illness free for 2015 so I can maintain some kind of consistency in my artwork. I continue to find myself inspired by the amazing landscapes here in the Pacific Northwest. I plan to paint whatever inspires me, whether it be a beach or a horse on that particular day. I am also working on overhauling my entire web presence. I am moving from jennpratt.com to a more formalized and web friendly jenniferprattartist.com. In the meantime my old site will continue to redirect.  So a toast to 2015, may it hold many great memories and new paintings!
