Time is running out ~ But it isn't too late!

I still need HELP!  

As I wrote last week, I am moving my home and studio in a couple weeks.  So, I'm offering some of my small paintings for just a few short weeks at a fraction of what they usually sell for.  This offer is given so that I have less to pack and move and so that my friends can enjoy some original art! Perhaps this will start or add to your own collection!

Now through July Friday, July 24th. The following are $19.95 each and that includes shipping!! (These paintings usually sell for $90 - $120).  That's right! $19.95 - and that's the full amount*!  See below the images for how to do this!  Each are ready to frame, but some are painted around the edges and framing is optional. The one's that have sold in the last week are now marked sold, but there are still more at this once-ever opportunity! 
* (Please note: Free shipping only within the US - for IL residents, I do need to add 8.25% sales tax, which adds $1.65. Your new total is only - $21.60)

Email me:   studio_upstairs@hotmail.com.  Include the title of the painting or paintings you'd like and I'll send you an invoice through PayPal. You can use your PayPal account or a credit card, and you don't even HAVE to have a PayPal account to participate! Then, after receiving payment, it will be packaged and sent!  It's that simple! 

I'm hoping each and every one of these will find a great home! (Don't forget, they can also make a great gift!)   I'm not painting these smaller sizes much anymore, so this is a great opportunity for my friends and a big help to me!     First come, first served! But the offer expires on July 24th! 
Thanks!!
