My painting was aired this today (April 25th) on CBS Sunday morning art
segment- titled "What's Next" by Martha Teichner. I did the painting for a
challenge with a group on: The
Artist's Challenge Blog.
I was thrilled to see it on the show and I want
to send a big thanks to Jessica and the crew of CBS. It was really fun!

November 1st (Saturday)was the opening night of my one person show so I wanted to give you an update.
I had a large number of small pieces alongside 10 larger works. I created some large wood panels (that I painted white)to hang on the walls. I then hung groups of the small paintings on the panels. This gave a way to hang groups of subjects together and made them stand out on large bare walls.
The show was very well attended. I always get a bit nervous when I do this sort of thing but once it got going I had a fabulous time. The people came in waves of about 15-20 at a time throughout the evening and some people that attended,I had not seen in many years. In summary, I would say that it was a GREAT success! There was great music, munchies, wonderful conversations and many paintings were sold. If you are one of the people who came by, I want to thank you and if you did not get there Sat. night, I hope you can still stop in to view it this week!

Being in the Halloween Spirit, I thought you might enjoy a few photos of my late relatives who show up on occasion. They are usually a bit befuddled and weird but have good intentions.To check them out:click here

In the news! For those of you who have followed my progress on entering the Blue Moon Beer art contest - They had their event and I won FIRST PLACE! Of course, I am thrilled and wanted to let you all know the results!

Yes, I am primarily a painter but one of the great things I love about art and that has kept me going all these years, is the fact that I can create anything I want. What a power!! lol I have never followed the concept of doing "only one thing" or staying to one medium. I have always loved experimenting with a variety of mediums and at this point, have experienced most of them (in the world of art). So, I guess this is the year for exposure of my art dolls!! Exciting that I got the cover and a great 3 page spread of photos and article in the August Issue. If you want to see the cover,:
