Small and Wonderful!

Chet from the Hammond Harkins Gallery sent me this photo he took of Matt and myself on Friday, speaking with LaVetta at the Small and Wonderful show opening.

 Loved the event and the picture!
 Hope you can all get in to see the show before it closes in January!

Art-filled Weekend!

This past weekend was wonderfully filled with art and friends, both old and new!  On Friday night, we went to the opening of Small and Wonderful at The Hammond Harkins in Bexley, OH.. Here is my wall of small and wonderful!

The show hangs through January 6th!

And On Sunday evening we attended an artist's reception for the 130 artists who had work selected to hang at the Hilton Downtown Columbus Hotel.  It was a lovely dinner reception where we saw old friends and met many new ones as well!
The project was to decorate the hotel using all mid-Ohio artists and it looked amazing!  They did a fabulous job and I'm very proud to be a part of it!   Click here to see a cool video on it!

Now I'm happily back in the studio working on a Christmas commission for the Wells Gallery in Charleston, SC and some small ornament paintings for Hammond Harkins Gallery in Bexley.  

Birthday celebrations!

This week I took some time to work on paintings as birthday presents to two special friends.  The first is"Snowflake" for darling Bailey, who is now 12!  And the second is "Stella", for my dear friend, Michelle, who turns the big 5-0!  Happy birthday ladies, and wishes for many, many more!
