New Painting - Holiday in the Mediterranean (click here to read the full post)

Welcome to all my new subscribers! I'll be sending updates straight to your email to keep you updated on the latest news from Brushstrokes by Melanie.

Introducing my latest oil painting, "Holiday inf the Mediterranean." This large artwork is 50cm tall and 40cm wide on canvas. The size and detail made it a challenging piece, yet it was satisfying to see it completed. It brings back memories of the Mediterranean and a desire to revisit to enjoy the cuisine, warm weather, and turquoise waters. Though finished, it will be part of my "Anticipated Soon" collection, as it requires a few months for the oil paints to dry, but it is available for reservation.

Brushstrokes by Melanie plans to donate a portion of its sales to charitable causes. We are in the process of selecting which charities to support and would love to hear your recommendations. I am inclined to support smaller charities and/or local communities. Please share your suggestions in the comments section of this blog page or, if you prefer, through the contact us page. Stay informed with our next post, which will list the charities we will be supporting. Don't forget to subscribe to Brushstrokes by Melanie!
