SUNFLOWERS

Another great honor, no money, opportunity. I'm working on a plan for a billboard competition here in Austin called Art Boards.org. I'm lifting the sunflowers from painting-in-progress of my dog Foxy.
Just the leaves in lower right corner will suit the attempt. Practice, Practice, Practice.

HULA HOOPING AT WEST

My friend Jean video taped at my WEST Austin Studio Tour then couldn't figure out how to email it to me so-o-o she put on a Flash Drive. I couldn't figure out how to put it on my computer so-o-o I copied it to a DVD and posted it! I can figure out that! VOILA'

LESSONS


Before and after. A little reorganizing of space and stuff was a positive from this event. 
My Drawing I class visited. One student, alarmed, asked "What is this radio station you are listening to?!?" He says "The Music! It doesn't go together! They keep switching around!" (KUTX FM) That disturbed him. I had no response to that. He made a good grade in class, mostly for showing up and turning in work on time.

SOLD AT WEST STUDIO TOUR



I sold the rest of my bee cards plus the paintings pictured here plus a framed watercolor and more. My babies gone to new homes! The ones which sold were all good ones. That is heartening, actually.

RE-REARRANGING ARTWORK


I took down MYTHOLOGIES and put back the painting called LOVE. In the detail you can see the little Monarch butterflies. One more weekend for the studio tour.

NEW PAINTING

This is a detail from a new painting called WINTER. It might be finished.
