Recently I participated in a show of miniatures at the Asheville Museum of art. Painting small is intriguing. So I have accumulated 15 or 20,( 2.5 X 3.5 inches) oil paintings. This size painting is also known as an ACEO , Art Cards, Editions and Originals.
With these little jewels I am taking the plunge into the auction experience.
Soon you will be able to check out my work on www.lindacheek-studio.com. You too can be a collector or just come by and look.

State Park



The Western North Carolina Plein Air Painters painted in the Dupont State Forest last week.

This is a 10x 10 en plein air, oil painting on panel of Hooker Fall in the Dupont forest. The rush of the water was so loud it was some time before I could hear normally again. The other painting is a 3x3 oil painting on canvas board, I worked up from the 10x10 painting. It will be on exhibition in the "3x3x3 Show" at Place Place in Asheville Art Museum for the next month.
