Welcome to C. Hartman Designs! I am so pleased to announce that I once again have a project that is on the Artist Club Website as a free download or is available for sale if you prefer.  This surface is very unique and was so much fun to paint, I was delighted when I received it in the mail.  I think that the possibilities are endless for this surface and wish that I could design another to use for other seasons.   It comes primed and ready for your paint there is very little prep work involved, I thought that it was the perfect surface for the snowman collector.  I hope that you will enjoy this piece and if you like it you should definitely get the surface while you can because these unusual surfaces tend to sell out quickly.   I'd love to hear your thoughts on this particular project if you'd be interested in sharing, I always take into consideration your preferences when I start a new design.    FM Brush has recently added a wonderful newsletter to their internet site and it is free.  If you haven't taken the time to sign up for the newsletter I would suggest that you do so at www.dynasty-brush.com.  The company is planning to do this quarterly, the current newsletter contained a wealth of information from some of your favorite Dynasty artists and some that might be new to you.  My current project in the newsletter is a wildflower/nature project utilizing the wave brushes and butterfly brush;  it is my goal to get additional wildflower patterns on my website in the coming months.  I have a number of wildflower designs that I am working on using the new butterfly brushes as well as the favorite traditional brushes.        I just placed a new free pattern on the website for all of you to use and especially for those of you who participate in the SDP's Memory Box Program.  You may recognize this pattern if you purchased one of the SDP's Treasure Box CDs a few years ago.  I hope that you will able to put this project to good use and paint these cute kids for someone that you care for or use it in your SDP groups.  Hugs to all of you.    Free shipping on all regular priced patterns in the Continental U.S. and Canda only, excludes Artist Originals, Supplies, and sale patterns.
