Here are your top four favorite postcards. I tallied all the likes, shares and comments. Thanks so much everyone for sharing your thoughts!

Red will be in the outgoing mail tomorrow, bound for The Luhring Augustine Gallery in New York city for the Visual Aids 17th ANNUAL POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE. All proceeds support the work of Visual AIDS. Visual AIDS utilizes art to fight AIDS by provoking dialogue, supporting HIV+ artists and preserving a legacy – because AIDS IS NOT OVER. Each card in the show will be priced at $85.

This card looks the most “New York” to me. That put it on my list of favorites, but I prefer the second and third choice. The benefit is not until February, but I will let you know as soon as I find out if it has sold. (Both of my earlier cards did sell.) Here it is signed:

Time for me to decide which postcard I will send to the Visual Aids 17th ANNUAL POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE exhibition. I need your help, because I have six favorites and I can only send one card.

I just finished these two. They may seem totally unrelated. I have wanted to paint a tree in our neighbors back yard. It just glows all day long. It is taller than the rest of the trees, and it even seems to glow when the sky is grey and the sun is hidden.

I spoke with a friend in Montana the same day I painted this tree. It was snowing sideways, the winds were so strong. I started this next one as an abstract, trying to use some leftover paint. Obviously blustery was on my mind.

I actually think I like it better upside down. What do you think? I can see a hint of tall mountains, maybe a lake in the distance.

Here they all are together. No particular order.

If you have time, let me know in the comments which you like best.

There is so much for me to be thankful for. I hope for you as well. I know I am thankful for all of you who follow my blog, and who take the time to comment. Your participation is a true blessing!
