Open Studio Event Coming Soon!

I am excited to announce that I will be hosting an Open Studio Event at my studio in High Rolls on November 12 and 13, both days from 2 to 6 p.m.  My event will feature new paintings, paintings from my last New York City exhibit, refreshments, live music, drawings for some of my artwork, and an auction.  I hope many will be able to join me for the excitement!  I will have a holiday discount in effect, plus many smaller pieces that would be very affordable for gifts.  I also have an installment plan to soften any cash-flow problem that might exist!

The macaw at the right is only 6"x6"--perfect for any small space in almost any setting.  The structure is gold metal leaf, with oil painting.  He has a "brother" and many cousins (other birds).

Thanks for your input and comments on my artwork!

Correction and Wandering Off

AAAh!  I just realized I put the wrong date for the opening at Sacramento Mountain Weavers Art Gallery!!  The correct date is June 11th.

How easy it is to wander off and not post to the blog for a long time!  Getting a new computer that does not "speak" my photo language has really bitten me!  I still have no real capacity for easily editing my quick photos of my work.  I will attempt to post at least one a day for the next several days, to give some idea of what I've been working on more recently.

I have done a series of birds recently.  This one was among the first, and also the biggest of the lot at 30"x40".  It's done completely in oil stick.  The colors are a little washed out in this image.  Haven't figured out how to edit yet.  I love how the parrots are "talking" to each other!
