New Website Design!!!

I have redesigned my website and it looks much better, it is still, www.brendaedwardsart.com....I went with a different host site, Other Peoples Pixels, www.otherpeoplespixels.com. It is a site that caters only to artists and if you choose to use Other Peoples Pixels, please put me in as the reference and link to it from my site and I get a free month! What I like about the site is I can update my website anytime I need to and change the design, colors, fonts, or upload a new CV...

But I have included the first set of paintings of my current project, The White Series, on my website. I hate marketing my art..I have spent more time lately with changing websites, I had to start from scratch with uploading images, text, colors, fonts...It's hard work...I don't plan on doing this again anytime soon...because I have spent a great deal of time on the redesign I haven't painted much...I have two series that I just started, 10,  8"x 10" wood cradled panels done in encaustics. If you don't know what encaustics is check out this website www.encaustic.com. It's a good site to tell you everything you need to know on the topic. I will show photos of my works in progress.
Another series I am starting is, 10,  30"x 10" oil on canvas paintings, I decided to paint this part of the series of my landscapes vertical rather than horizontal. It should be an interesting view, or an unexpected view. I always  have to work on more than one painting at a time, seems to work for me.
Please check out my website and comments are always welcome...
