Whale sharks are my new fun creature to paint!

This one is on a hand built long canvas that is 6 x24 inches.

The elongated canvas came about after I saw another artist with these really lovely abstract watercolor pieces that were elongated but matted to make them have more of a presentation.

I started out having Chris make them 4 x 24 but they were just too narrow to do anything with.

So, we started making them 6 x 24.

They are the perfect size for between windows or above doors.

People seem to love them, sometimes buying two for either side of a door or window.

I enjoy painting them too!

I was checking my pages on Facebook to see how things were.

I discovered much to my dismay that there was a fake event using my profile picture 

and a photo of my paintings for the Fairhope Arts and Crafts for next year!

There were several people using it to advertise "booths still available", 

contact me (which was various people)!

My name, paintings, and likeness being used for a scam!

I reported every single one of these people.

I also deleted the "event" invitation.

I'll probably contact the show too!

Or at least one of the members that puts it on for our fair city.

Another day, another painting, another scam, one day closer to the Annual National Shrimp Festival 

in beautiful Gulf Shores, Alabama.

I'm done for tonight!
