Fabric Art Demo

Wow - I attended the fabric art demo and breakfast given by Cindy Haase this past Saturday...lots of great ideas by a talented lady! It's always an eye-opener to see how others pursue their art..these demos that are at the LAC Gallery are the best!

Kilo the Great Dane


I'm excited to introduce Kilo, my latest pet portrait. A 16" x 20" acrylic, this portrait is a wedding present for some recently married friends...they are getting the painting today..sure hope they like it! I really enjoyed painting the shapes of his head and neck...now I understand why the Marmaduke cartoon is drawn to look so lumpy and bumpy! what great dogs!

Lakewood Co-Op

Yesterday was my first sitting for the Lakewood Co-Op at the Lakewood Arts Council Gallery on South Union...the co-op is a group of artists who use their volunteer time to keep the gallery open six days a week (10-5 Mon thru Sat)...in exchange we all are allowed to display our work there..stop by sometime and take a look! The Arts Council is always welcoming new members, so remember your art oriented (and art appreciating)neighbors and others you meet..invite them over!
