Hung the Friendship Bridge show yesterday. It was wonderful to be around such beautiful art! Thanks to all the great artists who were willing to participate in this show. How good it will feel to sell something and make some money for such a worthy charity and for yourself–so you can keep painting and framing!
A special thanks to those who went ahead and donated a piece as well!
Imagine a beautiful evening with wine, gourmet tapas, celtic music and Fine Art from some of the areas best artists–well that is what is happening on Sunday August 29th, 20l0 from 4 – 7 at the Little Lonestar Ranch in Bergan Park, Colorado. This classy event is open to the public and is a fundraiser for the highly successful Friendship Bridge–a charity that raise funds for micro credit loans to the women of Guatemala.

I’m totally thrilled that Tom Ware, a long time artist/sculptor friend of mine is featured in September 2010 “Southwest Art” Magazine! Tom is an artist through and through, he thinks, breaths and lives art. He is always pushing the creative edge and encourages other artists to do the same. In a day when profit rules the game it is refreshing to know an artist who’s aim is truth, sincerity and beauty. Way to go Tom! http://www.tomwaresculptor.com/
It’s great to be back in Colorado. The mountains are cool and green. There must be five or six plein air competitions going on in the west right now. I am sooo impressed with the quality of the artists of the Rocky Mountains.

This painting got accepted into the “Plein air Artists of Colorado” annual show which will be held at the prestigious SAKS Gallery in Denver, Colordo on June 25, 20l0 I’m pretty humbled because there were entries from across America and some of our best landscape artists will be in it!
Isn’t it great that we can celebrate so many cultures here in America?! Today I’ll get to see dancing dragons and twirling umbrellas. Maybe I’ll even be able to sample some dumplings!
