Top 10 frequently asked questions.

#1 How long did it take to paint that?

72 years (BTW - It's considered kind of rude to ask an artist this question.)

#2 Will you paint my pet driving my car, etc. etc.?

Sorry no commissions. I've retired from that part of my life. Grateful for all who have purchased my works whether custom or carefree. If you love an artist's work please consider purchasing something they really enjoyed painting from a GALLERY!

#3 What's with all the old vehicles?

 I like how they look.

#4 Can I get a "better deal" if I contact you directly?

Nope.

#5 Do I need to get my new painting framed?

If you want, but not necessary. They are "gallery wrapped" and ready to hang. Paint, paint, paint on all sides. (Is this really one of the top 10 frequently asked questions. Of artist Connie R Townsend?)

#6 Why do you paint dogs driving cars? /vehicles?

Ever notice how when you leave your dog in the car to run into the store (probably to buy a 60lb bag of dog food) you return to find your dog sitting in the driver's seat?   And then you're at home, say working on the computer, and you hear this "wuh, wuh, wuh, wuhoof" (sound of car starting) coming from your napping dogs lips, and their tail is sorta twitching or wagging, and their legs are moving (clutching and shifting).  I think they're dreaming about driving that car.

My paintings are DOG DREAMS.

#7 Why can't you put all that on a smaller canvas?

Myopia (n) my·o·pi·a

1. Shortness of sight: a common condition in which light entering the eye is focused in front of the retina and distant objects cannot be seen sharply.

2. Lack of foresight: lack of foresight or long-term planning.

#8 Why did you make that dog's nose so big?

I don't really know.

#9 Oil or Acrylic

I switched from oil to acrylic in 2019. For health reasons. I was becoming increasingly sensitive to my work space. It was not easy. There are pros and cons to both mediums.

#10​ Where can I get a print?

Google "CR Townsend Prints". There are a handful of images  released through my publisher and sold at  way too many places. I don't have control over this production or distribution. My grand retirement scheme was a bust.

Prints and note cards are available @West of the Moon Gallery in Flagstaff where your dollar spent there helps support that small business and ME! 

More questions? Ask a gallery, they talk prettier.

I sincerely appreciate you visiting my site daily to maximize my search engine optimization (SEO). Love your life and strive to become the person your dog thinks you are. Peace, love and dog biscuits.  Truly, Connie  connie@crtownsend.com
