It has been a hectic few weeks. Lots of travel and lots of shows and what seems to be a non stop parade of people.
Having a great time and seem to be doing well. Last road trip was 12.5 hours from Lewisburg WV to West Springfield MA. About 700 hundred miles.
Have a nasty cold but overall doing well. ... read more

Traveling around has been a wonderful experience. Working to bring in a living as well has its merits.
As with all things in life, it has had its ups and its downs. Hopefully the ups are better than the downs overall. Time will certainly tell over time.
This has been my summer with a few health issues. Nothing to serious but things to get my attention.
On the other side of the coin, I have been offe ... read more
Busy times...

Been overwhelmed the past few weeks with an effort to rebuild my inventory. Sales for me this year have been good and it is much appreciated.
Been busy making videos of the one of the processes I use now and again. Acrylic transfers, which can be fun, can also be illusive to some. In a series of four videos I have tried to make the process simple and easy to understand.

Since my spring show I have been busy creating new works and framing. It has been a real challenge. I still have more work to get done but I have slowed a bit.
Yesterday I decided, after receiving an artists trading card, that I had best create some. So, after 7 cards done with envelopes in one day I think it a good start.
Now, what the heck do I do with them? ... read more

This is a bit of a departure as I am using a marouflaged linen background for the first time. I am somewhat surprised and delighted to find it actually feels fairly good.
This has a real pearl, a iching coin, Turkish Marbled Paper, a jade stone, glass beads and acrylic on artboard. ... read more

The show at the Katharine Butler Gallery was a delight. Ronn Mattia and Ruth Hook Colby showed some remarkable work and mine seemed to compliment theirs nicely.
Sales were brisk and welcome. After chatting with the gallery director recently, he feels that a total of 18 pieces of my work were sold during the month. There were some sales on Ronns and Ruths part but I didn't want to pry into that. I c ... read more

Lynn is a dear friend of 10 years or so. She has been my yoga teacher but more important a friend. She and her new beau showed up at the gallery opening. I was thrilled and delighted. She is quite dear to my heart. ... read more

Saturday was the delivery date for the show at the gallery. I took in 19 works ranging from 8X8" to 24X24".
I am thrilled to see the other works involved. It will be a good show, colorful and in keeping with what both artists are working at. The colors are going to work together so well that it may be jumping with great joy. ... read more
