Today is my first #happymailmovement giveaway for my blog readers!  I have been working on these for a couple of weeks and I have over 20 to give away.  Some of them I’m sending to friends, people who have sent me happy mail, and a few members of my mentoring group, but I’m going to be giving away ten here today!

And, for those asking, I will be painting more to sell.  At first, I wanted to build a healthy stash to give away as happy mail.

I have absolutely loved painting these!  They are quick and give me a huge sense of accomplishment when I can paint 4-6 in one sitting.  I’m also learning a lot through the process.  It’s easy to experiment and not feel too uptight on a tiny piece of canvas.  I can just throw it away if it doesn’t work out.

You can tell that my favorite subject is blue skies filled with white, puffy clouds over farm fields.  I’m fortunate that is a pretty common view here in Minnesota!

Most are painting on 3 x 4 canvas.  The canvas is not mounted to a board or anything, so they can’t stand up on their own.  But, they are perfect to pin to a board, hang with clothespins, or mat and frame.  I painted them on canvas so they would be easy to pop in an envelope and it’s also what I had on hand.  I did order a pack of 180 mini boards of various sizes, so I’ll paint on those when they arrive.  I do like the texture from the canvas, though.

We painted minis in our Live Painting class on Friday, so I’ll be posting that video and details here this week if you’re interested in seeing how they are painted.

To enter the giveaway, you just need to be a subscriber of my blog.  Simply subscribe to my blog and leave a comment on this post letting me know you have (or you already do!)

The giveaway is opened to international readers and will close Wednesday, May 6, 2020, at midnight PST.

Good luck!

      Just once I’d like to be lucky and win one of these. You are amazing.

      • Bea

        I love to get one of these beautiful little paintings from you, my new favorite celebrity!

    2. Sarah

      Oh! I would love to have one. They are beautiful and remind me of the view out my back window.

    3. Cassandra E

      I live in the wine country in California, and everything is vineyard here. I love your puffy clouds and farm scenes I’d love a Marian original. I feel very discombobulated right now. I have even less down time than I normally would and haven’t been able to do nearly as much as I’d like, or keep up with the blog as I normally do. I think I’d like to send happy mail, and then I get caught up in mowing. (Endless fields to mow where the tractor can’t get because of rocks). We don’t grow anything here, it’s just for fire safety. For about one month or two, I can dream these fields are a bucolic scene in England.
      Maybe this post will help me get my ducks in a row and think about who I can encourage!

    4. Sharon

      I’m really enjoying your painting demos and would love to have one of your lovely works!

    5. Karen G

      I’m already a subscriber and would love to have one of these. I have absolutely no talent when it comes to painting.

    6. Joelle

      Good morning Marian,

      I hope you and your family are well. I am so happy I remembered to check your blog this morning, as I usually miss your giveaways! I just love your work and I would be honored and excited to win one of your pieces, as I just love miniature paintings. It is amazing how evocative a postcard-sized painting can be when it is done well!

      Thanks for sharing all of your beautiful work!

    7. Nancy

      Subscribed! The paintings are beautiful! 🙂

      This is just lovely! It’s also a win-win for the post office which is currently facing difficulties. A truly amazing ripple effect. I’ve been sending out little fabric quilted hearts and it’s a day brightener for me as well as the recipient. Here’s to the #happymailmovement.

      While looking out the window today, I noticed the blue skies with billowing soft grey, brilliant white clouds and thought of You. I do well to paint a wall and will never attempt to paint as You but I love that You do. I enjoy every talent you possess and mimic as many as I can but I leave the lovely clouds to You.

      As a longtime subscriber, I look forward to your Blog, especially in these times when we are now in the third month of being at home (the virus hit our area first and we have been “hunkering down pretty much since then”). I love these scenes of blue sky and fluffy clouds, which is definitely not the view out of our windows this weekend. They do make my heart happy!

    62. Julia Butler

Thank you Marian for sharing so much of your life via your blog you’re a true inspiration x

    63. Linda D.

      Clouds are how I relax. Now, more than ever, I am grateful for the wide embracing sky, accessible to me in these trying times. I can look out any window and relax into that wide blue and white. I can’t paint, and I love any artist who an capture the infinite possibility of a wide blue sky.

      I hope I win an original, but even if I don’t, I will respond to that wide blue sky in your paintings. Thank you!

        I am a new subscriber and would love to win one of your minis! My Mom was an oil painter, and I would love to be one, too. I always felt that I was more of an engineer than a creative person, but your classes have inspired me to buy some supplies and try it. I haven’t actually painted yet because as an engineer, I am faithfully watching first and coming up with a plan :). I am so close!! Thanks for sharing your talent!!!

    119. Joann

      You share such happiness with us Marian! I am motivated to send some happy mail to dear ones! Of course, I would love to win something!?

      Hi! I’m already a subscriber and adore your paintings. They are very peaceful.

    121. Betty Mckinney

      Miriam, I have enjoyed seeing your blog for a couple of years now. I loved your tutorial on the dish clothes and have made several of them, not only for my own use but to give away to family members. I have been busy making a quilt for my new great grandson that will be born in early June so I haven’t had time to do your tutorials on painting yet but I will get to them soon. I would love to have one of your paintings for extra inspiration to get me started. I look forward to reading your blogs and find they motivate me to get on with projects when I slow down. Thanks for taking the time to post your ideas and instructions.

    122. Lin

      I have been a subscriber for many years and love all your creativity! I can’t even draw a straight line as they say but so admire those who can! I do have a paint by numbers canvas that I need to get started on while we are all staying in but I just am unsure I will do a good job, but need to jump in and do it. I would love to have one of your soothing pieces of art! Thank you Marian for sharing you talent with your readers! I hope all you and your family will remain well.

    123. Andrea Lewis

      I’ve been a subscriber for a few years. Reading your blog about cloud painting has nudged me to look at the cloud formations in our beautiful blue Colorado skies in a new way. Being sheltered in place has made more time to slow down and appreciate what’s around me. Hope I win one! Would love to be able to paint one.

    131. Susi

      I’m a subscriber and just love everything you do!

    132. Donna

    133. LINDA SHARP

      Such beautiful paintings. You are so talented! I hope to give your classes a try as soon as I can!

    134. Carol

      I am thrilled to be a subscriber already to your blog and I enjoy every one of your posts. You have given me so much motivation to learn new things starting with crochet. I wasn’t able to get the materials in time to participate in the painting class however I’m so glad that you have them on your blog so that I can catch up as soon as I can get these supplies.
      In the mean time I would be thrilled to win one of your products.

    138. Nan

      Yours was the first blog I subscribed to and I’m 71 now. I think it was 2012 (?) when I found your blog. I’ve loved blue and white for a long time – learned to love it from my aunt, who was an antique dealer. Her living/dining room both were done in those colors. So finding you was like finding a kindred spirit. Your paintings are so inspiring. I have no self confidence in that area or I would be attempting to paint along with your class….good luck to everyone with the ‘happy mail’ from Marian!

    139. Patty Michalko

      You’re so kind to share your many talents with us. I would love to receive a landscape mini, if you haven’t run out yet. Happy mail is the best!

      I so look forward to your email coming, and love all your posts. You are so talented and I absolutely love your tiny paintings. They would look lovely on a small easel. Although I don’t live in the States I hope I can be considered. Thank you.

    150. Charlene

      I’m a quilter who’s just discovered I like to paint. I started taking classes at a local paint and wine studio and it amazed me how’s much to like it. Im going to try to paint your sky pictures if I ever get to buy paint. The blue sky makes me feel so alive. I look forward to your posts so much.

    151. Mary

      Have been a subscriber for many years. I do own 2 of your originals. They hang in my bedroom and they make me smile? But a mini would be wonderful!

    159. Sandy Henningsen

      The sky full of billowing clouds have always brought me closer to God. As a little girl growing up in a small town in Illinois, I would love to lay in the grass gazing into the sky dreaming while enjoying the many colors and shapes. Childhood was full of the out doors with no schedule in the summer. It was a simple time . Durning this pandemic I find we are being drawn closer to the understanding of community, humanity and forgiveness. You’re bringing that message to life through your blog and giving spirit. Along with many who follow you , I enjoy your encouragement, grace and talent. May you feel all the love you share so freely returned.
      Hugs and blessings , Sandy from Colorado

    171. Julia Ruby

      I am a beginner in oil painting and discovered your website about a month ago. You have given me the inspiration to paint clouds! I love your simplicity and down to earth personality. I would LOVE to own a small painting of yours.
      Thank you for all you do for the aspiring artists!

      • Jen

        Marian, your paintings are beautiful. Each one is so relaxing and brings a sense of calmness. I used to paint years ago before I got married. My husband and I have two grown children so maybe it is time to pick up my long lost hobby. I never thought of starting with a small canvas but you have inspired me to try it. Your happy mail gifts were all thoughtful and wonderful. You must have had a lot of fun opening each one.

    172. jane fox

      I love all of your paintings and the subject matter. So easy to get lost while just looking at them.

    182. Lily Fulton

      I would love to have one of your lovely paintings!

      I am a subscriber and want to thank you for sharing your wonderful talents, inspirations and most generous heart with your followers.

    183. Patrice

      I remember the day I found your blog in 2012 …. it was a difficult time i my life and I really enjoyed your enterprising methods on a shoe string budget…( starching the fabric to the wall) I was distressing furniture with turpentine and chemicals long before milk paint … and your Luckett’s market growth continued to amaze me over those years….being a native Virginian and all! I also loved the blog’s name… as a girl my mother would often reference that scripture and actually had a mustard seed encased in glass on her charm bracelet.
      Over the years I have followed and grown tired of the redundancy of most bloggers… but yours continues to be an inspiration. As one who is probably your mothers age… I have enjoyed watching you develop your talents and inspirational journey. So regardless of whether I receive a cloud canvas or not… please accept this as a different type of “happy mail” and know that this lady applauds your efforts and commitment to your craft! On yeah..lest I forget… you my dear are no “accidental” entrepreneur… you are manifesting the God given talents with which you are gifted and he knows exactly where he put you.. it was no accident!

    184. Starr

      I love everything you do! Your minis are adorable!

    185. Gail

      What beautiful paintings. Thank you for the opportunity to win one.

    186. Judet

      Already a subscriber by just a couple of months. I look forward to your posts. I would love to win a beautiful painting. Good luck to all.

    187. Patty

      Marian, already a subscriber and I love your paintings. I would be thrilled to win one! Thanks so much for sharing. (Please excuse if this goes thru twice- problem sending)

    188. Netti

      So enjoying the painting classes. Would love one of your mini’s!

    189. Tracey

      Hi Marian,
      I’ve been a subscriber and follower for many years and have learned so much from you! You never fail to inspire me and many others! You are so creative and talented. Thank you for what you do and for sharing it with all of us (for free!)

    190. Sandra Gumm

      I have been following your painting tutorials, observing, listening, watching and rewatching! I have learned so much in such a short time. So I finally got out the acrylics and gave it a go! What fun! Now I am gathering a supply of oils and that will be my next challenge. Hopefully they will provide more realistic results, since acrylics dry so quickly, even with additives, it is a challenge to blend the colors to achieve the soft effects. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for all the encouragement. You are a treasure!

    191. Christy Keyton

      I am already a Blog subscriber. Have loved it for years. These are lovely- very soft and soothing. Thank you for sharing your work!

    192. Lori Hobbs

      These are beautiful!!! The colors perfectly blend together. I just bought a new blue couch, inspired by you. I love all of your blues that you incorporate. One of these paintings would be perfect on my wall to pull the blue across the room.

    193. Sandi C Ownby

      I just found you a week ago and am so excited to see all that you have been doing. Your design sense is right up my alley and really inspires me.
      Your mini oil exercise is giving me courage to try it as well. I’ve never been a painter although creative in many other ways. I am gathering my supplies and looking forward to viewing the class.
      Thank you for being a positive, encouraging voice in a bleak month.

    194. Maeva

      I already subscribe to your blog and instagram.. I look forward to reading your posts to see what your creating. I like your style!

    195. Jackie B

      Your blog is my favorite and probably one of the first blogs I started following. Thank you for the Happy Mail Movement. Such a beautiful thing to do.

    196. Theresa M Grace

      I’ve been a long time silent subscriber but you’ve inspired me in so many ways! I’m attempting to crochet, milk painted my first piece and draw inspiration from each of your posts! Thank you for the opportunity to own one of your beautiful pieces.

    197. Susie

      I would feel blessed to have my very own MMS painting and some happy mail. I’ve been with you for several years, and admire your bravery at just trying things you love. As always, practice makes perfect. I need to step out in faith more with painting myself. Soon I hope. Blessings to you and your family. Stay well.

    198. Deborah

      Those Minnesota fields and acres of blue sky growing enormous billowing clouds look a whole lot like our fields and skies in Texas (our skies tend to be of cerulean variations)! I admire how you capture the awesome and wonderful in what many would find ordinary and dull. Your optimist and sunny personality are clear components of your work regardless of the medium. Thank you for generously sharing with all of us. ?

    199. Tracey

      I am a long time subscriber and admire your work from afar. My mum painted in oils when I was little and took it back up again when she was in her eighties. I haven’t been brave enough to try yet. Maybe one day. Thank you for all the inspiration you share.

    200. Lisa

      One of the favorite things of my current home is that I can overlook fields with black cows, distant mountains and sunsets. God speaks to me through these beautiful scenes, He always has. My favorite hymn, This Is My Father’s World, describes the beauty of God’s world in song – you have done that with your gift of painting! How giving of you to share these with others, what a gift!!!!! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!

      • Paula Ball

        I absolutely love your decorating style and how you do so much of it yourself. The talent that you have is immense.

        Anyway those mini paintings are absolutely stunning. Would be thrilled to be a lucky winner.

      • Daphne

        Hi Marion, contacting you from Ontario, Canada. I’ve been following you for a number of years, I love your furniture makeover tutorials and your teaching style. I’d love to be able to display one of your miniature paintings, wish me luck! Daphne

    201. Lynette

      Your blog was the very first one I ever followed. Now its been years and I still love it. Your paintings are a new dimension and just as interesting as the other things you explain and teach us.

    202. Vikki

      I have followed your blog for years and I also follow your Instagram. I love your painting classes. I have only been able to do two of them, but want to do the minis sometime next week. I haven’t painted in years and this feels so good to do this now. Thanks again so much.

      • Kathy

        I have followed you for years. When I scroll through my emails, I always look for yours to read first. I’ve mentioned to you before that my in-laws live in Rochester, so I have been there many times. Love all that you do and how you stage your home. My current living room is painted in Cinderella’s Slipper thanks to you and your last home. I have tried to buy one of your mini paintings numerous times, but they are always sold out at lightening speed.

    203. Tara Tardiff

      I would absolutely love to win any of these beautiful paintings!!!!!

    204. KIMBERLEE

    214. Donna

      I have been a subscriber of your blog for many years now. I initially joined for your painted furniture. I have stayed because you write so well and make everyone feel like a neighbour and friend. I have not tried oil painting yet but I certainly have enjoyed your miniature paintings and hope to someday try my own.

    215. Julie

      I am a fairly new subscriber and am so happy that I found your blog during this “unique” time in our lives. You have so many talents and how lucky we are to have you share them with us. I have always enjoyed looking at the clouds and had thought of taking one photo every day in the same location and at the same time of the sky – with or without the clouds. I’m always taking photos of clouds – they are magnificent in their simple beauty. Your paintings have caught their emotions and I would love to have one of the mini’s!

    216. Laurie

      I’ve lived in San Diego since 1980, but grew up in Iowa – I never appreciated how truly beautiful it was there until I started going back to visit. I miss it, and my sisters there, so much – excited to be underway w/plans to build a second home in Minnesota so I can enjoy the best of both worlds!

    217. Fran

      Look forward to your blog every day…happy “e”mail!

    218. Leone Wilson

      Your mini canvas paintings are as beautiful as all else you do. As a long time subscriber I enjoy all you present. Would love to win a mini canvas.

    219. Sharon Dobbs

      I love your paintings. I wish I had started on your beginner course. Thank you for showing these.

    220. Muriel Reitz

      Thanks to you and your blog, my family has new dishcloths and hot pads! I have been making your Pom Poms recently. I would love to own one of your paintings. Also thank you for the pot pie recipe. It is my husband’s favorite and requested often. Thank you.

    221. Kerri LaFornara

      Yes, Yes !! I am already a subscriber. I am still waiting for paint supplies ordered in March and hope to catch up and join you live soon !. Thank you so much for doing this. It has been fun to follow along.

    222. Pamela

      This is such a fabulous idea! I need to do it on my painting lesson blog. My garden blog has been taking so much of my time (it is that time of year) that my painting has been put on the back burner but little paintings like this are a great way to keep painting. And giving away the little paintings as happy mail is so fun! I love it. Thank you for the inspiration and I love your little paintings, they are lovely.

    223. Denise

      You were the very first blog that I followed and continue to be my favorite!

    224. Susan Sieg

      I’m already a subscriber and I look forward to seeing and learning about what you’ve been up to. There’s something about you that when I read over what you’re doing, it de-stresses me. I feel like I can achieve simpler times in my life and I have. I remember when I was young I always collected little pieces of art, and different note cards, stationery…. you bring back those memories and then I’m in my happy place. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us!

    225. Carol

      Already a subscriber, but am surely loving these miniatures. I am blown away by your talent as well as those who are taking your classes. I’m so tempted to try my hand at this. Y’all are so encouraging to an amateur.

    226. Nancy in WA

      Your blog posts have been such a happy part of my life for a few years now. This #happymailmovement idea is something I need to get me out of my selfish rut. Thank you!!

    227. Judie

      I have been a subscriber for many years. Way back even before your paint line! Loved your style then and have loved watching it grow and change to what it is now, similar yet different. ❤️

    228. Barbara Sullivan

      I’ve been a subscriber for years. I have to visit Mayo a couple of times a year, and last time my daughter and I visited 2 of the spots you recommended: the feed store/ antiques store ( what a treasure trove!) and the consignment store. That was in late Feb just before the Stay Home directive – lucky us! Thanks!

    229. Donna Burke

      Already a subscriber, I always look forward to your posts as a happy spot in my day.
      Ordering some supplies when I get a chance so I can join in on the classes. A welcome rest from the stress of the world. THANK YOU!

    231. Dawn Y.

      Your beautiful paintings just make my heart happy, Marian! The texture of the canvas is perfect for the farm fields and clouds. I love your #happymailmovement! As a card maker, mailing off my cards always brings me as much joy as creating them! I’m a longtime subscriber… with fingers crossed!?

    232. Mary Ann

      I’ve been a subscriber for a long time and absolutely love your paintings. I am hoping to win one of your lovely canvas paintings!!!

    233. Cheryl

      I’d love a Marian mini! Miss Mustard Seed subscriber and devoted fan right here! ?Seriously, I love all of these! I’m loving learning how to paint. It’s been such a positive outlet and distraction.

    234. Mary

      Thanks for your blog, I enjoy it because you are unique and planted in reality. I don’t paint on canvas but I have used your paint on furniture. I especially like the hemp oil finish. Stay well.

    242. Sheila

      Subscriber and Friday art student. Thank you so much for sharing your ‘gifts’! I’m sure most of us ‘students’ can attest to your incredible patience and kindness. You have encouraged us and inspired us to pick up that paint brush and just paint!! Thanks again for all that you do!

    243. Kimberly Fleischmann

      I have recently found your site and I am enjoying everyone of your posts. Thank you so much for sharing.

      I especially love the mini paintings and they have inspired me to bring out my oil paints again.

    244. Julie

      Happy Saturday!! I am a subscriber and it has been very enjoyable watching you grow in your love and talent for painting. I, too love clouds, blue, green and would love to display your talent in my home.

    245. Christine Wirtanen

      I absolutely love reading your Blog. I have been a subscriber for a long time. You inspired me to begin painting some of my old hand-me down furniture pieces! All that you do inspires me. I love your style, classic, forever. Classic painted scenes from the country and ocean? I’d LOVE one!

    246. ROBERTA CORDELL

      Your clouds are beautiful. When we are out and about I am always commenting about how pretty the sky looks. I do have a question…how do you keep your kitties out of all that beautiful yarn, my cat is about 16 and it he sees yarn or felt, he starts eating. He has had surgery once to have a lot of his intestine removed…he had eaten a long piece of yarn and 5 q tips. I enjoy reading your blog, your home always has such a calm feeling. Thank you for sharing it with us.

    247. Mary Ann Bassett

      I have been a subscriber to your blog for many years now. Have loved watching your evolving interests!

    248. Mary

      I am happy to say your blog pops up in my mail every day! You are so incredibly talented. You were my inspiration to enroll in a painting class through the adult Ed opportunities at a local college. It was to be a a six week foray into painting at a beginner level. I was fortunate to attend three classes before covid shut it all down. I would cherish one of your paintings! Thanks for sharing yourself with us daily.

Thank you for bringing that to the front of my mind again!!!!

        Happy follower from Ontario here! Marian, your paintings are so lovely and everything you do is awe inspiring. I only started collecting vintage treasures in the last 5 years and was hooked so quickly. So much so that I started a vintage rental business and it’s my way of life now. I follow so many designers and you are by far my favourite. I so look forward to seeing your projects and am obsessed with the details inside your beautiful home. It would be amazing to win a painting. They remind me of my childhood growing up in the country. If I don’t win, I hope to start my Marian original collection soon! <3

      Dear Marian, since discovering you and reading your delightful emails, I believe that we are kindred spirits! Your faith, your love of family, your desire to share joy with others, your personal taste & creative drive, even your love of blue skies, pastures & Eulalie….. each of these describe my heart to a T! Unfortunately due to “life” circumstances, my home has suffered and my time, opportunity, and will to create have been non-existent. Reading your emails at every opportunity has helped me realize the importance of answering the call to create, even if time will allow only a few precious minutes a week. There is so much to this story but the important thing for me to say here is… thank you… from the bottom of my heart. You are a truly a blessing!

    506. Kristin

      Puisque je prends la plume aujourd’hui, je tiens à vous dire que j’apprécie beaucoup l’harmonie de bleus, blanc et vert sauge de votre maison. Je savoure également les commentaires que vous faites sur vos voyages à Paris et en Toscane.Voyages, dont vous ne pourrez probablement pas profiter cette année, compte tenu de cette triste conjoncture.

      Bonjour!

      A happy subscriber who has learned to love oil painting. I was always intimidated by the medium. I do not consider myself an artist – more of a maker – and oil painting seemed like something I should leave to the masters. Mais voilà – here I am painting. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with your community. It is very much appreciated. And I will be ready to paint a pear or lemon come this Friday evening here in France. Ah oui – avec a glass of wine. I am almost certain it helps in my creative process 😉 Until then mon amie – Karen

I love the way you have combined your talents for beauty in the home and on the canvas! It encourages me to feel proud of my combined talents! Thank you for sharing your journey, teaching and making the extraordinary out of the ordinary!!!

Thank you for all that you do for us!

      Marion, I love your blog. But what I really love is your generosity in sharing your talent with so many strangers. Especially at a time like this.

      As an art major, I started my career as a graphic artist then after 15 years, I went into technology. It’s been a good career, but I so miss the creative side. Luckily, I found your blog and have been following your creative endeavors for a few years. You have helped to get excited to start oil painting again. I reminder oils were intimidating in college, but you present the subject with simple steps and GREAT ENCOURAGEMENT! I hope to get my supplies and set aside 1-2 evening each week to get going.

      Thanks again for doing what you do!

    692. Robin Bentley

      I’ve been a subscriber for some time. You are such an inspiration. Thank you for your painting lessons every Friday. I usually do them a week or so later. Yesterday, I had some quiet time and did the Seago light house. I really need to go back and do the cloud study again and again and again. They fool me. I think, gosh that looks so easy, then they looks muttled. I will persist, thanks to you. These little ones are up next on my agenda. AND, the pictures I’ve been taking while outside on our farm…..might need a new iphone. lol

    693. Nancy

      I’m a subscriber! I LOVE those mini landscapes. I have a gallery wall of landscapes and one of yours would be a great addition! Thanks for the great content!

      I have been reading your blog for years, it’s the first one I check each morning, always a great way to start my day. Thanks! I have subscribed.

    695. Missy

      These paintings are beautiful! I live in B.C., Canada where there are lots of mountains but I’ve always been drawn to the prairies. I’ve only once or twice seen the beauty of a prairie sky – and that was in the winter! I would love to gaze at your paintings every day and dream…..

      I LOVE these, would look so cute with one of your landscapes I purchased a while back. :0)

    701. Betsy

      Marion, I just have to thank you for all the wonderful product suggestions. I ordered one of the lovely bags from Dunn by Designs for my daughters birthday and I’m so excited. I also ordered the linen fabric you suggested. I saw that someone made linen towels and was thrilled with their drying capacity. I’m always looking for a towel that actually dries, I’m not a fan of thick towels. Of course your milk paint is the best……Boxwood is a treasure! Since I have no luck winning anything I was wondering if you had time to tell me how I can purchase one of your little paintings. I go to your products page several times a week to see if I can purchase one but they are always sold out. Can I sign up for updates of when the paintings are available? Thank you for your help.

    702. Heather Braun

      Oh…I forgot to add that I am already a subscriber…lol, I got so excited!

I took pictures of big white puffy clouds this weekend but don’t think I could ever master painting them.

    735. Julie

      What little jewels these paintings are! I’m a subscriber [since before the studio in PA – things have changed for both of us :-)], and I’d love to have some #HappyMail from you. Thank you for the ray of sunshine your blogposts are – and btw, the German Cucumber salad from a little while back is how my Oma made it as well. She would send me out to the garden to get as much dill as I could wrap my little hand around to make it.

    736. Amber

      I subscribed! These paintings are lovely. I live in the Midwest also (Iowa) and I love the rolling farm fields and countryside.

    737. Denise Hess

      I accidentally found your site when looking for milk paint, what a happy accident to find out you are an artist as well. I have been wanting to tap into my desire to paint again, its been decades. More to my delight was when you offered to share your knowledge, talent, and time for free with your new painting tutorials.
      I feel I have a new friend(s) in your community of followers. I’m hoping to be brave enough some day to post one of my mini’s.

      Thank you for the inspiration Marian!

    738. Maxime

      What a generous person you are, Marion!
      I have subscribed to your blog for some time. Your posts really are inspirational. I appreciate your effort and sharing so much.
      Your little pictures are so lovely. Do you paint them from real scenes, or invent your clouds and landscapes?
      Like Denise above I’d like to start producing art again. Decades ago I was an art school graduate. One of the reasons I faded away from working on my art was that I had no idea what to do with things once they were done.
      It is wonderful to see so many people responding to your kind offer. Your posts make me feel that it is possible to find a use for one’s output. 765 responses is amazing!

    739. Barbara Barker

      I am a subscriber and I love all of your posts! Hope I win 😉

    740. Krista

      Your mini paintings are so sweet! I am a long time subscriber and enjoy every post!

    741. Natalie Fontaine

      I surprised a friend with my first cloud study from your class #happymailmovement . She was in real need of cheering up. Her family is separated due to the state of the world we are currently living in and her husband is stuck in Germany while she and her children are here in southern California. It made her day. Thank you Marian for generously donating your time with us by offering these classes. It is the bright spot of my week. You’re an inspiration to us all.

    742. Robin Drake

      I absolutely love your artwork!!! I have checked quite often lately to see if you have any more to sell- glad you will be adding some soon!

      Hi Marion,
      These are darling and so peaceful. I started reading your blog many years ago when my daughter lived in Gettysburg. While visiting her I recognized a dresser you’d painted in a shop on the square! She has since moved back to Washington, but I’ve enjoyed following your journey. You are such an inspiration.

I’ve followed along with your classes each Friday and am happy to report that color studies are going well and I am starting to get the hang of happy skies with white fluffy clouds. Thank you so much for having us paint along with you each week. This has truly been a bright spot in a trying time. With a little more practice I think I will soon have something to hang on a wall or tuck in a bookshelf. You are the best!
