Texas Sauce Art: Visions by Vernita

Colored Pencil Society of America

I was recently accepted into the CPSA, Colored Pencil Society of America. Many of my ACEO paintings have been rendered with colored pencil. Today's colored pencil work is far different from the map colors we remember from school. Many works are so highly executed it is difficult to distinguish them from oil paintings. I feel honored to be a part of this national association.

Maine Coon Cats published in "Today's Pet"

My pastel painting titled "Maine Coon Friends" was published as the cover art for the May-June issue of "Today's Pet Paper" in South Dakota. 

Wolf Week May 27-June 3

I will be listing three new pastel paintings of wolves on May 24 for 10 day auctions. Watch for them to show up in the auction list. There may be more coming on the 27th or the 29th.

I have also relisted some previous paintings. My relisted paintings rarely go down in price. Typically, they go up to whatever the Buy It Now price had been on the previous auction. You will always get your best and lowest price on the first time around listing. Art appreciates in value. When the paintings move to my website they go up in price. Take advantage of these low, low offerings on eBay.

More Paintings Available as Auctions or Buy It Now!

I decided to close my eBay store. The store didn't get much traffic. Without it, I can list more paintings for auction or immediate purchase. Please bookmark this page or remember to search for HOYT in eBay ART category. I list in a couple of different divisions under ART. I'll try to keep something up at all times.  

Mother's Day Auctions

I have listed three new auctions, and any of them would make a perfect Mother's Day Gift: 1) the Red Rose ACEO miniature art, 2) the Mother's Day kitty, and 3) the still life print of "Pear ala Chianti." There's just time enough to get one in time for Mother's Day if you use the Buy It Now feature. I will ship the day after payment is processed.

Dachshund Sweetie by V. Bridges Hoyt

Yesterday, I painted another pastel Dachshund named Sweetie. Since this one is on black Mi Tientes pastel paper, I wanted it to be a lot more colorful yet still convey that the dog is primarily black. Not up for auction yet, the full image can be seen on my txsauce blog or on my website. Click on my "me" page to find a link to my website.

Doxie Team Player

This image shows three steps of my process in the pastel painting of Team Player up for auction now. As is typical, the original painting is more vibrant than the digital image, and the pastel strokes are so much more fresh and real.
