Just finished a new painting for the  SPCA, Best In Show,  being held on February 5th at the Taubman Museum in Roanoke.  It is a fundraiser for the SPCA and the winner’s painting is featured on next year’s Calendar.  . Come one and all to the opening as it is great fun, good food, and lots of painting of artist’s pets.

After much trial and error, I am finally sure of my journey.  This blog is dedicated to conversations about art, art resources, collaborating with other artists and social media marketing gurus.  The plan is to offer a lively site that helps other artists and me to promote art online and to pursue excellence in art.  Join me!

We have more than 12 inches of snow.  This is the most I have seen since we moved here in 1996. Beautiful to watch, not much fun to get off the driveway!.
