I am somewhat of a procrastinator. Anyone with me? I don’t know why, but I often wait until the last minute to do things. My Christmas cards – just finally hit the order button yesterday. Crossing my fingers they’ll be in the mail before Christmas. Same with my holiday shopping. I don’t save it ALL until the last minute, but I definitely don’t finish up early.
And several months ago my good friend asked me to paint her a new stag picture using grays and fuchsia. Did I do it right then? Of course not. I waited. And waited. I think deep down inside I like being busy and running around like a crazy person. I must. There’s no other explanation for it. But I finally did paint that new stag watercolor for my dear, patient friend and I thought I would share it with you. Because maybe you were born with the procrastination gene too and need a kind of last minute gift for someone on your list.
I painted my first stag watercolor last year. It’s black with mostly red flowers on his antlers. Just like all my art prints, I scan in my original watercolor painting and make prints and digital files that I sell in my Etsy shop. One of my customers commented that my black and red stag art was a nice marriage of masculine and feminine. And I originally thought it was a great holiday image but I’ve actually left mine up all year!
Then another one of my friends asked me to paint a blue stag for her boys’ bathroom. My guess is that I procrastinated getting that one done too. But I did it. And I love it. It definitely has a more masculine feel since there are no flowers, but the blues are so dreamy.
So after all that procrastination, I now have three stag art prints for sale that would make wonderful gifts for anyone on your list. Stags are such elegant, strong images that are so trendy right now. Add a pretty frame or put it in a gift basket or wrap a ribbon around it and give it as a hostess gift. Or just keep one for yourself. Now you have three to choose from!
Just don’t wait too long!
