“Georgia Avenue Silver Spring, Md” is a sketch made from a photo I snapped while sitting in traffic. I love the numerous telephone wires. This is part of my local urban sketch series.
Some sketchbook prints are now available from my etsy shop: MichelleBaileyArt.etsy.com. Please email me about any images you are interested in that you don’t see listed.

Each card is individually signed and wrapped in a clear protective cello bag. Give as a gift or send to someone special. Four of the cards feature Takoma Park inspired paintings.

I have just listed two new prints made from my original paintings which you can purchase at my Etsy shop.
“Hello Takoma Park” is a colorful cityscape painting of downtown Takoma Park, MD that I created using acrylic paint and a ballpoint ink pen on an artist panel. “Iceland” is an acrylic landscape painting of the Skagafjardarsysla region in Iceland. I used Google Street View (GSV) locations as a reference, which can be viewed by scanning the QR codes included with the prints. I’d like to give a special thanks to Bill Guffey for creating the Virtual Paintout which inspired me to keep painting while I was housebound and recovering from an injury. Anyone can participate. I hope you enjoy these new paintings and feel inspired to create your own! virtualpaintout.blogspot.com/
Printed with archival inks on acid-free paper. 8×10″ overall size of mat. Painting information, signature and print care are on the backing board. Wrapped in a protective cello bag. Ready to frame or for gift giving.

Capital City Cheesecake is a great cafe & bakery located at 7071 Carroll Avenue, Takoma Park, MD.My paintings are displayed to the left of the stairs on the way to the counter. Stop in for coffee and check out the local art.
This painting is inspired by a colorful truck with great bumper stickers I had seen for many years all around Tako
ma Park. A couple of years ago I saw that it was for sale and I haven’t seen it around since. I wonder where it is now and if the new owner kept all of those bumper stickers. I found a cigar box with wide landscape orientation that was perfect for the truck with it’s various messages: DC VOTE license plate, TKPK, HON, EARTH, Celebrate Diversity, Well-bahaved women rarely make history, Artomatic, Atomic Music, etsy.com, handmade.com, rainbow peace sign, and more.
