Clay Conference

Had a great time today at the Clay Conference. Gina Hurst and Alissa Ramsey did a GREAT job! Thanks girls for inviting me. You rock!

You know...God works in funny ways sometime.

As I was checking in I was very nervous...as usual. But I looked up and saw one of my "girlfriends". http://pickmybrainsart.blogspot.com/ She was actually coming to the event today and I didn't even know it. Hmmmm. So needless to say my nerves were at ease with her smiling face in the second row. Thanks for taking pictures today Ang.

I also got to meet some really great people. (that's the part I love the most) Some who were just starting out and some who were getting read to jump ;-) Good luck to all of you.

Here is picture from the day.

Enjoy!

What a weekend! Whew!

Sorry for the short posts here lately. This week has been a tornado!

Off course there is work, but the weekend has been filled as well. On Saturday I had the opportunity to paint...yes I said it..PAINT. Gosh now that is a stretch for me huh? No, really, I was given a wonderful opportunity to donate my day to a great cause. My dear friend Carol V. is opening a new center for Autism and wanted me to take on the challenge of painting. So we gathered a team of volunteers together and off we went. The sad part is that my camera AND cell phone where both dead. So no pictures. But not to worry, we will be painting again next Saturday. I will take some and post them then.

Next up..Sunday...ahhh the day off.....not so fast...I got a call from Gina and Alissa over at the clay conference. http://www.alclayconference.org/ They want me to come and give a small speech/testimonial about "A Year of Art" So I will be doing that tomorrow. If you are out that way, stop by and give me a shout at 1pm.
I guess I can give up the lazy, restful, much needed sleep on Sunday morning for a little limelight. LOL
All kidding aside I can't complain...well I can but what's the point? I am blessed to even have the energy to have a weekend like this. They werent always this way you know ;-)

I will post pictures on all this later. But for now...it's time for sleep.
Have a great weekend and
Enjoy!

THEY ARE DONE!~

Well it has been a very very long week. Trying to put all the finishing touches on the Panel Series and have them ready by Thursday was the goal. And we did it! Ricky,Noelle and I worked very hard and are tired...but THEY ARE DONE! And it's Friday! TGIF. My family hasn't seen me for any length of time for 2 weeks:( I am really going to have to make this one up to them. But my husband is so sweet. I don't know how he does it. But he works his job, comes home,takes care of EVERYTHING and still smiles at me. Thanks babe:)

They are now hanging in the clients home:)

So...this will be the LAST post about these panels...YEAH! I am sure you are all ready to move on. It will be nice to get back to casual painting. The art festivals are coming up soon. YEAH!

Hope you all have a great weekend.

Enjoy!

Another day...Another Panel

My working buddy Ricky and I have been busy at work getting the final panels completed. They are due on Thursday and will be delivered to the clients. Hopefully they will have a smile on their faces when they receive them....fingers crossed:) Here is a picture of the next one I am working on. I will post them all for you to see at the end of the week.

Enjoy!

Another sold & Panel #5

Another painting sold. This was called "A Study in Degas" Thank you to Brian and Richard over at Richard Cable Interiors.

The commissioned Panels are coming along nicely. Here is a glimpse of Panel #5. I know...the name alone makes me want to sing Mombo #5 :-)

Sorry about the picture quality..had to use the trusty cell phone.

Enjoy!
