Made By Girl News

Hello everyone, Happy New Year! WOAH it is super cold today in NYC! -  Like 14 degrees. Good reason to stay in & write this important post.

I've been in the process of selling a few things in my home & making way for some BIG changes. A baby-space/office (if you can believe that).   Our son is growing quickly & needs a little more space to move around.... so, I've decided to sell a few things including my white leather daybed. (pictured below).  In the process of all this... we are also working on a new blog design + new site design....and I've been painting a bunch of new ART to add!

Now for the BIGGEST news....after 10 years in business as Made By Girl, a portion of my business will be partially closed down.  What I mean by that is - the prints/poster section of my company will no longer be available.  So basically, 98% of the ART on Made By Girl from that point on, will be original paintings.  I've thought about this change long & hard & contemplated on many things. To be honest, it feels like the RIGHT CHOICE for me at this time.  Perhaps this is the beginning of something more meaningful?? I don't know.  But what I do know, is that new beginnings make room for others things to grow.

THANK YOU for all your support throughout these years with my art-prints portion of my business.  I can't even begin to tell you how HAPPY it made me & how much I learned from it.  Unfortunately, the ART PRINTS business has become terribly saturated & EVERYONE is now a designer of prints/posters CREATING prints with every quote in the book!  Sadly, the uniqueness has died.

So, on I go to the NEXT THING.....to innovate & create new work. And in the meanwhile, my Original paintings come with me.  That +  a bit more is what I will be showing you with the new site (for the most part).  Stay tuned, as we will have a HUGE sale soon .....on... ART PRINTS.

Neeeeews & other stuff

Took a small break today to get some coffee in my neighborhood. Well, not much of a break as you can see I still dragged my laptop to join me! (This pic is from my handy camera phone ) It was such a beautiful day today... (not a cloud in the sky) and about 80 degrees.  Also, I wanted to say thank you to all those who have commented on my first 'ever' GIVEAWAY on my blog. The winner will receive a LOVE CANDY print in the color of their choice. I've been meaning to do this giveaway for awhile now & finally did it. I can't wait to randomly choose the winner and announce them on Friday, Yay!....hmm I thought of extending the time to Monday to choose someone, but we'll see. A couple other things to mention: Please remember that MadeByGirl (my company) will be exhibiting at the 'National Stationery Show' from May 18-21  - so please drop by and chat with me if you're out there!
