I spoke last time about being inspired by Mikki Senkarik and her colorful art.  This is a painting that she demo'd on her site.  It took me three days to complete.  That was a long time for me as I am not used to painting big paintings.

Mikki and her husband Jack White have had a very successful career selling their art.  Mikki gives a lot of tips on her site and Jack has written a book "Mystery of Making Art " about painting to sell.  One of his tips that some may disagree with is if you want to paint to sell, paint what people want to buy.
