I have new dates for classes, demos and workshops posted on my site. My workshops began locally in Mount Dora and then Orlando. Now I'm slowly spiraling out across Florida. Looking forward to meeting and creating with new faces out there- come join us!!
Here's a preview of some of the pieces I just finished for Arts On Douglas Gallery for the Small Things Considered show. Show opens December 7, 2013 from 4 pm to 7 pm and hangs for the month of December.
I recently had the privilege of doing a commission for an extremely awesome daughter from down under. Sarah from Australia wanted me to do a painting of her Mom, who lives in England, for her 70th birthday. Her Mom, who's name is Christine, is a world traveller and has lived in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Greece, Norway, Scotland, England, London and Cornwall. She travelled with her 3 children when they were young too. Sarah sent me a bunch of photos of their adventures and told me about how Greece was one of her Mom's favorite places. Christine also used to own a fabric gallery in England. The serendipity! I love it!
So we chose this photo because of her great expression and contentment. I am so happy with the way it came out!
Christine, did you know then the years of adventures to come? You're an inspirational Mom in my book and you definitely raised a thoughtful daughter. I wish you a very very HAPPY 70th BIRTHDAY! Enjoy!
