  • Changes coming: I’ve found myself at a crossroads and have come to the decision to change my art business. I am less interested in pursuing the larger, traditional canvas paintings, and find myself focusing on small artworks and painting upcycled found objects! Which also includes a change in painting styles. There is something about practical art the truly appeals to me, and though I am very proud of my canvas work, I want to focus on this new medium.

  • One major business change will be this website. I can no longer invest in the formal website, and will be removing it by the beginning of September of this year, along with that is the Print-on-Demand Merchandise offered by Printful. I will still own the “dianespaintings.com” URL, so if I ever decide to have my own website again, I will be able to retain the same web address.

  • My social media sites will remain active! Facebook, Instagram and new and improved Pinterest site will be my methods of communication.

  • My Redbubble print-on-demand store will remain! And will include new merchandise by the end of this year.

  • I am proud to announce that my “Time’s Narrative” painting earned 2nd Place in the Landscape Category for the Burbank Art Association’s Fall Show.

Update 6/06/2023

  • NEW merchandise available in my Red Bubble Shop! Wait…you have a Red Bubble Shop? YES! I have a Red Bubble Shop! It was dormant for a while, as I thought I was going to switch over completely to Printful for my Print-on-Demand Products (See “Shop Art Merch”)), but Red Bubble has items that I just couldn’t let go of, and decided to have BOTH stores. Here is just a small selection of items you can purchase.


Inspired by nature.

Earth, Air, Water, Fire, and the life force that flows through each.
