My hope is that you will learn a little something from my experiences and be able to apply them to your own art or craft business…

Most of all, I want to inspire you to continue doing what you love! Featuring ~ Building Your Brand, Finding Your Niche, Don't Undersell Your Vision, Online Shop and Blog Tips, Time Management, Social Media, Art/Craft Show Checklist, Stay Inspired and a great Resource List with links!

I have sold thousands of paintings worldwide, and I am the editor of the popular art and design blog, Bright Bold and Beautiful. I hope this book will inspire you and serve as a guide to achieve your goals!

Reviews:
This is both a beautifully written and presented book. It's stunning pictures and common sense logic on building a creative business is priceless. Laura has articulated all the common sense we as artists sometimes forget. It's a valuable tool to have that is a constant reminder to keep it simple, be true to your art, and don't cut corners. I love it and now feel confident that I can turn my art into business. Laura is an elegant artist and business woman with a generosity and kindness that shines through on every page of this beautiful, must have book... Laura has successfully followed her own advice and is happy to give away her secrets.

Wildflowers in Watercolor

2011-10-23T16:20:00.011-04:00

Inspired by the beauty in nature, I try to copy the feeling of being free in the outdoors. I am trying to paint more "painterly" lately, and I have a fondness for abstracts. Today I experimented with pale violets and blues, and after the paper was dry, I added deeper hues of reds and blues over top,

creating a layered effect.

Wildflowers in Watercolor is 11" by 14" on Arches 140 lb paper.

Floral Bouquet in Blue and Magenta

2011-09-14T21:00:00.008-04:00

I just painted this little floral bouquet... simple and sweet. Perfect for your favorite cozy spot, work space, or anywhere you want a hint of inspiration. I used American Journey watercolors: sap green, permanent magenta and cobalt blue. The backdrop writing is one of my favorite stamps with a mixture of all the colors. The key is to keep it fresh with one brush stroke for each shape.

An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision. ~ James Whistler

I painted this little abstract using straight color without mixing. I did not want any of the colors to get that "muddy" look. I did place the watercolors touching each other so there is a slight blending on each side. Afterwards, I had fun with a couple of stamps and the circular image is a glass rim that I put paint on and used it as a stamp!

House Portraits by Laura Trevey

2011-09-09T12:16:00.008-04:00

I have a couple of tips for painting custom house portraits. Below is a step by step list for you to follow. This order of painting always helps me achieve a fresh end result. You never want the painting to look overworked.

1. Sketch out the house to get your dimensions and perspective.

2. Start with the foliage and trees. You will be surprised how much of the house is covered by the landscaping.

3. Add the blue sky.

4. Finally you are left with the house, which is nicely framed by the natural part of the painting.

5. I try to capture the shadows and paint them 1st on the home.

6. Paint the shutters and roof, and finally you are left with the color of the home.

7. If the home is white, you only need to add a couple of light cast shadow colors, and always leave a couple of spots with the white paper to give it a pop!

Please visit me on my new website: www.lauratrevey.com. You can purchase your custom home portrait here.
