In celebration of my 300 sales on Etsy.com (and nearly 600 artwork sales since 2005), I thought I might give something back for a change.
I will be happy to send someone my landscape painting shown above absolutely free of charge! Shipping is even on me!
Here are the painting's details:

| ARTIST: | Chad Wys (ME, of course!) | |
| MEDIUM: | acrylic paint on heavy paper | |
| DIMENSIONS: | 9" tall, 12" wide | |
| SIGNED: | bottom left |
Gallery value of this artwork is roughly $75.00.
The artwork is offered without matting or frame - that part is left up to the winner. I've shown it here in a frame so that you can see what it might look like.
1 winner will be selected at random. The giveaway ends August 2 at midnight.
I hope you enjoy the painting. Good luck, and thanks for stopping by!

I favorited you (Saidera). saidera1 at gmail dot com
I live with my son and daughter-in-law and grandaughter and while I of course have access to other rooms my room is the only place I have to make my own, to showcase who I am and if I won this it would certainly go a long way to making my room unique and aesthetically more pleasing as you have much talent. I do not think I would mat and frame it traditionally but rather frame it in a clip frame to let it stand alone on its own artistic merits.
I would overmat it and frame it in a clean, modern frame, then hang it with the other two painting that I purchase from you! I love your work!
I would love to hang this in my bedroom. I find landscapes very relaxing so this would be perfect in the bedroom where I'm trying to unwind at the end of a long day!
I'll put it in my living room. My walls need help, and I love this!
I faved you and Cadmium Alloy on Etsy!
Oh, this piece is so lovely, it would be right at home in my living room.

Congrats on 300 and 600 sold. You Rock
and now you are linked. Try not to be overwhelmed by the traffic. Since I started the paid blog my other blog has died. I am not sure that I even have any readers left.
I've never owned an original painting. This one is screaming to be put in my room on my newly painted wall. Wow, you do good work! Vanilla_Val@hotmail.com
i would LOVE an original painting! WOW! What a cool honor that would be! (i am MISSFAGAN on etsy!)
I love landscapes because when I stare at them a while a story forms out of the backdrop. I would put it in a quiet part of the house where others can see it but I could use it to "get away" sometimes

I would hang your lovely landscape in my bedroom.

I'm hoping to move to a new apartment soon and this would be beautiful to hang in the living/dining room!

I'd definitely put this in my bedroom and stare at it before falling asleep so I could dream of beautiful landscapes and countrysides.
This would compliment my decor. I have red in it. Glad I found you on sweepstake advantage. dorcontest@gmail.com
Oh - I love the painting. I would place it in my place in Maine - it totally fits in the decor.

I really like it. There's something about your work I love. Maybe the skies? I love the openness, reminds me of my childhood home.

I would put this in my office right above my computer. I love landscapes and I would see it whenever I am working.
Hi Chad,
I'm in Wales so not eligible for entry. I thought I would write though and say how much I appreciate your landscapes and how in particular they resonate with the Welsh landscape. I am keen on a Welsh landscape artist called Chris Neale, check out his site and see what I mean.
Best Amanda
what a great piece! landscapes bring to life an almost tangible earthiness to otherwise boring spaces. it would be wonderful in my home office.
allison.wheeler@att.net
This would go in our dining room with another original piece we have by a PA artist.

I love landscape paintings in general but I really like yours in particular because it could be almost anywhere. I think that whoever views it will instantly have a mental picture or memory of a similar place they are very familiar with. It would be a welcome addition to my walls!

If I am lucky, lucky, lucky and win this amazing work, I would hang it in my living room. It would replace a print - it's the "spotlight-dance" of my home - the first thing you see when you come in the front door and focal point of my living/dining room area.
I like landscapes because it brings an outdoor place to the indoors. It provides a "place to go". When I sit and look at a landscape, I can picture myself in the artist's vision of a location - the same time, place, and feelings.
Thank you so much for sharing your talent and for having such a generous giveaway.
