WOW, 8 months have gone by!!

I started using Facebook, and almost decided to stop using the blog -
Working with my high school kids' photo blog has made me rethink getting rid of mine.
So little by little I will get my online journal up to date...

Check out my high school photo kids' blog!

My show is OVER!!

The show went well, I was a little disappointed that so few of the college students came, but I guess that's how it works when you are a 'long distance' student. It was very pretty - it's amazing what a difference a mat and frame make - add a little spot lighting and it is truly magic!! The lovely flowers were sent by my brother Marc and his wife Carolyn. Unfortunately, my photos don't show the magic very well - we didn't bring the big cameras, and my little camera's settings were all messed up, so the pics are not very good.

This show only had 20 pieces - my senior show in 1985 had 42 pieces! Piece of cake!! I have this picture of me and Dad putting the frames together over that Thanksgiving weekend 24 years ago!! Where does the time go?

This time it was Dan and me - my hero!!! And I only procrastinated a little bit, and of course, everything that could go wrong, did...but it looked lovely, and I'm glad it's over!!

Art Show countdown!!!

I am ALMOST DONE with my MASTERS!!!! I graduate in May!!!

My Masters of Art in Art Exhibit is Feb 1-12 in Alpine Texas at SulRoss State University!!! The invitations and posters are ordered, the frames and mats are done, and the glass should be ready next week - it's almost ready - yeah, right!

We set the artwork out last month to see how it would fit in the gallery - mine is on the floor, Ben Sum's (I think) is on the wall, there is another artists work on the wall in another pic - can't remember his name.

Here's a new piece, I had the drawing done 2 years ago, but I did this today! Not finished, but it's looking pretty good - I love oil pastels and oil paint sticks!!! My daughter Erin has red hair and blue eyes, so this is based on her.
