Art Camp was great this year.. We learned and played with an airbrush. We made t-shirts and bags to carry home. We also did clay work and made a rabbit holding a carrot that holds your favorite pencil. We had a blast and are anixous for next year's camp. Camp dates this year were June 1st and 2nd. Time 9:00-1:00 $75.

Carnegie Visual Art Center, Decatur, Alabama

Carnegie Art Center in Decatur chose "Washed By the Water" to be on exhibit May thur June. In June, awards were on display at an Art Reception held at the Carnegie. There were close to 100 to 150 people there. David was able to attend with me. I was so suprized when I found my painting among all the talking crowd that it had a ribbon hanging on it. I won the Director's Choice Award with a montery value....It was so awesome.

Here are a few other entries I entered at Calhoun Art Show.

Calhoun Community College Art Show 2009

This year's art show at Calhoun proved to be very exciting for me. I placed second place with "Washed By The Water". I placed third on the People Choice Award on the "Night Bistro" and a placement for all of my paintings in the show over all. Needless to say I was so excited.

Time for Coffee and Catching up!

Sorry it has been awhile since my last post. I have been spending time in the studio and time gets away from me before I know it. I will attempt to bring you upto date on the past happenings.

In April we traveled to Troy ,Alabama to a new show to me, called Troyfest. The city of Troy was incredibly hospitable and a wonder host.
We were presented with a great site for our tent and display that was surrounded by trees and lots of sidewalks for Dake's chair.

David was not able to go but our good friend Phillip Webster was great to come along and pitch in as always.

My sales were good at this show. I did notice the lack of education in the population of art. After talking with a local educator they are working at implementing more art in the school system.
