She takes commisioned jobs but hasnt been painting too much lately
Im trying to get her to go to the galleries with her stuff ,
I may comb my hair and go for her if she doesnt soon cause shes got the talent to go to the top .
I've got quite a few paintings around my house from her and I just know they are gonna be worth a fortune someday
Heres a few of her portraits
I have had my whole family done , but its time for a redo cause that was when the kids were really young . My daughter alex
My buddy devon
( I was there the first time this guy saw snow )
Kelly, my grandma is the same exact way, she is super-talented and has like 100's of paintings all over all the family members' houses.
I have been doing the same thing trying to motivate her to go do somehting with them, I had an idea to build her an online gallery and sell prints on it, maybe we could get together on that...
... Reading this as we speak so lets all be on our best behavior
machinegunkelly, your moms ... uh, submachinegunkelly[?] does fabulous work!
I am nowhere near the artistic level of her but I have studied a little and can say she has a firm grasp of things - everything is in proper proportion (typical mistake is the head is usually too large or too small) but from what I have seen she is bang on.
thats amazing stuff, she should really look in to doing that to pay bills, i bet she would make some good money off that selling those paintings
Im trying to get her selling stuff online ,
She did at one time before I did design etc , and got taken to the cleaners by the web designer hosting etc , so I think shes afraid it will be like that again .
BUT .. I can get pretty much everything she would need this time around for free , build the site and market it for her
Guarantee she'd make some coin .

Is your mom hot? This thread is worthless without pics! Sorry I didn't want to lose the typical GFY flavor. But seriously those portraits are crazy good, they look photo quality nearly.
One important point for you and your mom to consider is, I would imagine she enjoys doing this but if you start to involve biz and money it might not be so fun so be careful of that more than anything. Happiness is more valuable than money.

For sure ,
I now what its like to have an artistic project due when you just arent feelin it
Shes got enough stockpiled to open her own gallery , but its " never good enough " which is just another artist quality , you never think your stuff is " good enough " Only others do .
