Hello 2009

It is great to be home from two weekends in Florida. The weather was a perfect 79 degrees, but is is great to be back home.

 Naples was pretty much uneventful. I sold one 15 x 15 painting " Rapids at Anna Ruby. Las Olas was a much better show. My big sale there was the "Cottage Retreat" 30 x 30 to  two wonderful gentlemen who live right on Las Olas Boulevard. They were a delight to meet and I am happy that my painting is going in their home.
The Cottage Retreat is a house in Atlanta that I jogged past one day and was taken with its charm. After my run, I drove back with my camera so that I could paint this lovely house. This painting was on of my mom's favorite, so she was sad to see it go. My other sale worth mentioning at Las Olas was the 15 x 15 of "Time to Celebrate" . This was a row house from New Orleans.

Happy New Year!

Week 1: Ocean City, NJ Aug 8, 2008

Well, I made it to Ocean City NJ, Finally! I thought the drive would kill me. I just bought a Ford Econoline van from a friend. I love the van. Having enough space for my paintings and myself is a wonderful thing, but I had not really driven it yet. 85 rattled my nerves.  After 14 hours though, no problem, I can drive that van!

Everyone worked really hard and had a great time. I could see a lot of progress in such a short time.  So now it is time for the art party!! 

Family and friends came out to see what these young artist have been up to all week. I had the pleasure of meeting several parents tonight and you could tell how proud they were.

We had students from all over the US, so a lot of new friendships were formed this week, and what better way to celebrate than an art party. Check out these great pictures from the show.
