“Great Egret” 12×12, oil on canvas, $150 [button link=”http://www.dailypaintworks.com/fineart/denise-hopkins/great-egret/287147″ type=”big”] Buy Now[/button] Yesterday evening I found myself at the beach house, which is a great sentence until the part where I tell you the beach house is just a Mandeville restaurant with mediocre food. I, along with many Northshore parents go for one reason […]
Last week I went on a work trip to Disney World, and in the midst of packing and planning, a little creeping anxiety popped up– was there a way to bring my brushes? My easel? What would happen if I went one day without painting, much less three? Ultimately, I decided that my best […]
When I decided to treat artist as a viable and practical (what is more practical than doing the very thing you have the ability and means to do?) career option, I did a painting a day for thirty days. Much like childbirth, I promptly forgot how difficult it was and (foolishly? wisely?) decided to do […]

Given the threat of all-day rain, it seemed better to pack up than deal with the dreadful combination oil paintings and bad weather today. I painted a lot yesterday. My first painting was a crab, […]
It’s been a long day at Alligator Fest. It runs from 11 to 11 Saturday and Sunday, and I did 6-11 Friday night. Is it wrong that I’m a little relieved it looks like constant rain tomorrow, and I might forego it altogether? What I like most about this festival is the other artists, one […]
“Festival Time” 6×6, oil on gessoboard, $75 I’m finished writing all the stories you’ve sent in, and, if I’m honest, my disappointment in running out is tempered by the fact that I don’t think I could have done it today.
