Thanks so much for the update, Frank. Nice to know my work has a good home and that it made it safely. :)

Frank, will be sending the painting out soon as I get the Ugallery box. I love the way they handle shipping, very mindful and protective of what is being sent. Side note, my gf and I are taking a trip at the end of June to Maine, and we'll be staying a night outside of Mystic, Ct. on our way. Will be fun knowing as I drive down 95 across the sound from you, my art will be enjoyed on the other side of the water. I have no doubt that my camera is going to be full of future paintings after our adventure!

Hi Frank, thank for enjoying the painting. That is one of my favorites, I love night scenes. It is indeed wired, and will be ready to hang as soon as you get it. Thanks again, Chris

Hi Chris, thanks much for the follow up. One of the nice things about Ugallery is the option of returning purchases. No artist enjoys seeing one come back as they do seeing one go out, but I would rather know my painting is in a perfect place than taking up room that it doesn't fit in as well as hoped. I love showing people my paintings that have only seen them online; the reactions are always fun, whether small or large. There is something that can't be captured on a screen the same way it can be in person, and the same goes for when you take it home and have that same piece hanging on your own wall. Please do keep an eye out, and hopefully another will have a better fit for you. Happy New Year! - Chris

Hi Chris, the sides of Pine Shadows 2 are painted black, not wrapped. With a majority of my paintings I either paint the edges with white or black giving them a clean look that looks nice even if not framed. At the bottom of the image, there are a few photos that you can click on, one of which will pull up what the side looks like. http://www.ugallery.com/acrylic-painting-Pine-Shadows-2 If you have any other questions, please let me know. PS...that painting is a personal favorite. Thanks much, Chris

Thanks so much for the follow up Jennifer, I love to hear that my painting is getting a tour of your home, haha! I was thinking about that painting over Christmas as I walked past the same spot the original dandelion was. There was a whole new crop blooming...I could have done a new one and called it "Winter Evening Wish"! Now after 5 days of true winter's weather, I'm ready for the real Spring to start coming to life in the next few months.

Thanks, Kathy! If you are on facebook, one of Ugallery's artists visited the This Old House home that they are displayed in and sent me photos which I posted. :) www.facebook.com/chriswagnerarts I hope my little cow will add a few smiles to your own home when it arrives!

Hi, Linda, thanks so much for the comment. I'm in New Bern, and have really enjoyed becoming more familiar with both the Kinston Arts Council and the art scene around town. I'm hoping to start showing at the Overland Gallery soon; I had a wonderful talk with one of the owners a few weeks ago. If you are on Facebook, I strongly urge you to check out a group that I started there, called the Neuse River Artists. We have close to 400 members, some are showing artists, some are beginners, and others are simply admirers. Also, come down for one of our Artwalks (2nd Friday of each month) and enjoy the vibrant crowd of creative people that we have. I'll be in my studio (where I have some of my Ugallery paintings as well as others) on display. The facebook group that I referenced can be found here. Thanks again! www.facebook.com/groups/neuseriverartists/

Thanks for the posts. I have been working furiously this last 12 months on my first large scale solo show; the final count was 53 paintings on the walls at the opening! I haven't painted that much in a year since art school. I was positive once the show was up, I would be looking forward to a break, but as I type this I have a canvas primed next to me for a new acrylic, and a sheet of watercolor paper on my board as I get ready to work on a portrait commission. When I feel the drive, it is impossible to turn off. Now that the show is up and hung, please keep checking in, as I will be showing more new works here on Ugallery in the coming weeks.

Hi, I'm Chris. Just a note thanking UGallery for welcoming me to this site, there is some wonderful art here. If anyone has any questions, please ask. I'll answer any that I can.
