Still Life-Roses

This was one of my favorite set ups in a workshop recently given by Carlene Reeves. The roses were fresh from her garden. The pink ones are Belinda's Dream, which last a long time and have a lovely fragrance. The green vase and pink roses looked so beautiful together that I couldn't resist painting them. The white rose was a nice addition and added a charm to the arrangement.

ARToberfest!

I am thrilled to report that my painting "Liz's Poppies" was accepted into ARToberfest, an annual juried exhibition, at The Art Gallery in New Braunfels, Texas. Not only was it accepted, I have been told that it won an award! I won't know which award until it is announced at the Gala Opening Reception, Friday, October 8. The reception begins at 5pm and the awards will be announced at 6:30pm. I would be honored if you could attend but, if you cannot make it, please do try to see the show. It is on exhibit now and will run through November 10.
