Another great thing about being an artist is that you get to see so much wonderful art created by people you know and care about, and often get the back story on the pieces you love. And, you sometimes have the opportunity to trade art for art! So...here is my story. Catherine was creating paintings for a featured show at Local Colors one month for an Angels and Saints theme. We were both up late one night and messing around o...

It's Nibblefest time again! This month's theme is "Ode to Blue" Here are my three entries: "Blue Lady" (original watercolor)  SOLD! "Sunrise in Blue" (original watercolor)  SOLD! Print of "Dancer in Blue"  SOLD!

So, it was a delight to find out that my "Pieces of Time" painting won a ribbon at the Intermountain Society of Artists Fall Show at Patrick Moore Gallery. Nice! :)
