Hydrangeas in September

It's been a while since I did a "shoot." The pandemic, selling my house, the moving, the looking for a new place all got in the way of organizing and orchestrating a shoot. My lovely neighbor has volunteered to be my model so I've got some new ones in the wings. I went shopping and discovered the local "nursery" and found yellow daisies. Thank you Trader Joes' for the lovely hydrangeas. I got out my "go to" chair from the garage in storage....(small house here) and then had my model come out. The spot was in shade until voila! the sun came over the tree and illuminated her outfit, the table and the flowers. There will be many from this shoot.....I really like the sweater tied around her neck and the hair is new for me. She's not hiding under a hat! I just got the notebook that I designed for amazon in the mail and it's available if you type in Sally Rosenbaum woman's journal ...there are over a 100......so you may have to scan through a few pages to find this one. Thanks for checking in! I also have an AUTHOR PAGE where I am lining up the writing books for you to see on one easy page. www.amazon.com/author/sallyrosenbaumfineart https://youtu.be/jgaPms2VvB0

I am so excited about publishing such beautiful resolution photos of my paintings on writing books. They are easy to use, strong and, of course, with an image of someone reading or writing on the cover....inspirational. You can buy one or collect a set from a series. I always photograph my paintings with a high resolution camera and save them all. Generally I photograph with a canon 80d and will divide the painting into halves or fourths depending on the size and then stitch the photos together with photshop. That way I get a large file suitable for printing or sending to fineartamerica where many of my paintings go....(Ijust signed with ICANVAS too) Again, with the help of Photoshop, I sized them for the 7 x 10 and 8.5 x 11 covers and created the composition notebooks. This week I added this one in the 7 x 10 size which was in demand for fitting in purses. I have lots of women taking classes, managing shopping lists, writing common book annotations and this fits the bill beautifully. If you try one, please write me and let me know what you think. The only complaint I heard was that the word composition across the front as the title should be removed, so I did. I see them more as Women's journals....a place to write most anything. I am falling in love again with writing and paper and PENS! This one is available as of last week and of course if you have amazon prime the shipping is free...It arrives in 24-48 hours.
