Giclee print of the original painting 'Feelin Good' by Victoria Kloch

I love everything about this room!  My client sent me a photo of her baby's nursery where she used the reproduction of 'Feelin Good'.  To me, it is so refreshing to see a piece of art that is something other then farm animals, unicorns or Winnie the Pooh for a nursery.  This piece will grow with her long into her adult years. 

​How do you get a huge painting shipped to Brazil?  Kurt makes me a sturdy crate, that's how we do it!
What you can't see is that on the end pieces, there is a disk that fits inside of the tube that the painting is rolled on.  That way the painting is completely suspended without touching the sides. completely protected.

Below shows the foam board over the painting. He than places heavy shipping cardboard over that.

FREE TO BE ME by Victoria Kloch
This was my entry ​ for the Painted Bra Project in 2013.  

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is to draw attention and encourage fund raising for research and education.  Each BRAsterpiece was donated by an artist to this auction. 

About my piece. It was painted with acrylic and silver leaf foil.  A cool thing about the bra that I used, when it was new, it was originally sold by Victoria's Secret in their 'Pink' campaign. 

My World - 5"x7" watercolor abstract by Victoria Kloch - 2014 Sold

I don't know how other painters feel, but for me each painting documents periods of time. When I came upon this painting on my sold page, the name really stood out to me.  This small little painting has a really big name.  My World suggest something very personal. Perhaps  when I named it, it was more about the process at least that's what comes to my mind as I look at it four years down the road.  On that particular day, it was about purple, yellow and green.  Somehow, it was those colors on that day back in 2014 that made my day a little brighter.  

My new oil paints just arrived.  I'm looking forward to painting some contemporary modern coastal paintings. I've been wanting to do this for so long and Kurt asked me what have I been waiting for? Just do it.  Must be right because I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas.  

It's hard for me to believe that Lucy and I have been together for nearly seven years. My little Boston Terrier is perfect, well almost perfect. They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks and in this case I'm the old dog. It's high time to  seriously work on walking with a leash. For the most part, in the past, she is the one who walks us. Pulling our arms out of their sockets as she weaves from side to side. Our walks for the most part are challenging and I long to be able to just go on casual strolls everyday. When we take her hiking, off the leash, she's great. She listens and there is no problem when called. Unfortunately when it comes to walking through the neighbor that's just not the case. After googling for help, I am finding that all I need to do is to learn how I need to become the alpha dog. It looks like most of the experts out there agree that the struggle we now face while walking my little powerhouse of pure muscle will become easy breezy if I consistently follow through. Eventually this will reassure her that I am in charge and she can simply relax and enjoy our walk. Feeling optimistic and ready to face the neighborhood. 

Yesterday our friend invited Kurt and me out on his Carver to explore the San Francisco Bay. Though we've been fortunate to do this many times, each time there is something new to see. Yesterday we had the privilege watching easily one hundred pelicans fly overhead. That was an ahhhh moment. I wasn't able to get my camera in time but never the less it was awesome.

What I can share with you is this photo. If you are a commuter that travels back and forth from Marin County to
San Francisco, you have crossed the Golden Gate many times. This picture here is the less traveled route.
This was taken from underneath the Golden Gate Bridge. From an art prospective I can relate it to a Franz Kline structured painting with strong geometric shapes. The bottom shows the fog rolling over the Golden Gate Bridge
​taken from land at the Presidio by the Discovery Museum. 

Making the most of life day by day,
