I need to update my blog more....

I do. I know this. I need to set a goal of updating at least once a week, I think. And then maybe go buck wild and start updating a few times a week. Can you imagine?????

I haven't taken pictures of anything in the past couple weeks, and usually I like showing pics of what I have been up to. Which, honestly, is nothing incredibly exciting.

My grandmother won some cash at the casino and has been giving away money like it's going out of style. So I decided I am finally going to break down and buy myself a table and chair so I can actually have somewhere to sit and make art and leave all my supplies out. I *HATE* having to clean everything up when I'm done and having to drag it all back out when I want to create again. It compltely stunts my creative process. So, nothing fancy--but a table. And a chair. And maybe even some plastic bins to put art supplies in. It will be wonderful and I will take a picture of my new "studio" when I am finished.

Downtown Art





I delivered my art for the May Family Arts Festival the weekend before last. It is now hung and looks great! A. and I visited my paintings and took lots of pictures. For any of you that are in the Springfield area, the art exhibit resides in the front window of the Tower Square building facing Main Street. The actual festival is this Saturday; I will let you know how it goes!













All of the paintings are available for sale. Whatever doesn't sell during the festival will be going back into my Etsy shop at the end of the month. Or, you may contact me directly if interested in making a purchase.

Sneak Peek

I've started work on a new series of portraits. All told, it will be a series of 12. I'm not quite ready to say any more about it now, but wanted to share a picture anyways. I'm pretty happy with how things are coming along:
