Just got back from the Meet the Artist shin-dig put on by Inside Northside Magazine (followed up by a burger meal at Outback). A great time was had by all. I’m a bit tired now, but I just wanted to post a big Thank You to all you who made it out tonight - it was great meeting you all, I’m sure :-) Thanks!

More later.

Yesterday was my first showing at the Madisonville Art Market. The weather was terrific all day, and the unobstructed view of the river was peaceful and worth the trip all by itself. Before the show started, I spent the morning watching a lone pelican making passes along the river, dive-bombing for fish, gulping them down, and taking to the air again (I think he had moved on by the time the market started). (more…)

I just wanted to make note of the fact that I will not be at the Madisonville Art Show tomorrow - sorry for this last-minute announcement [though, I'm not so sure anyone was planning to attend because of my presence]. Besides, I’m pretty sure the show will have to be rescheduled because of flooding - not sure.

Anyway, next art show I do plan on attending is the usual NorthShore Art Market in Covington, Saturday, October 11th. I already have many new paintings to show off; by that time, I may be showing all new artwork. So come ready to buy, Christmas is on it’s way [hint, hint].

This one is a study of the tree line I see from my studio window - I toyed with the idea of adding some kind of center of interest in the foreground, but I couldn’t make a decision so: here is where it remained.

This Saturday is the NorthShore Art Market in Covington, LA. I’ll have a booth there once again and I’m looking forward to it. That’s all - come out if you can!

This Saturday, Dec. 8th (10-4) I will be set up on the corner of Boston and Lee Street (diagonally across from Coffee Rani). Come by and enjoy the artwork if you’re in the area!

The Ruston Studio Artist Tour was a little disappointing in that the turnout was poor - though from what I heard, the downtown area was better attended - but I would like to thank Connie Cline (owner of The Pewter Company in Ruston, LA) for graciously sponsoring my artwork. So, thanks Connie - you did everything possible from your end (and then some).

This coming Saturday (December 1st) is the Mayfield’s Visions In Art, Artist expo (10am to 5pm at the Holiday Inn in Covington, LA). I am still planning to be there, and I will be bringing my paintings. It will be indoors, so don’t let a little rain keep you from coming if you’re in the Covington area!

The following Saturday (December 8th) I will have a booth at the North Shore Art Market in Covington, LA (10am - 4pm). This is an outdoor event along Lee Lane in Covington. I am considering bringing an easel and doing some painting, but I haven’t decided . . .

I will be the featured artist at the Artist Studio Tour in Ruston, LA this weekend at The Pewter Company. This will be Friday, November 16th and Saturday, November 17th. The times are Friday evening, 5pm to 8pm, and Saturday all day. Come by and see me!

The Mayfield’s Art Show has been rescheduled due to inclement weather. It will apparently be held sometime in November, so . . . .

Sorry, to anyone who had planned to go.

Come one, come all. I will be showing my paintings at a booth at the Mayfield’s, “Visions in Art” Artists’ Expo, Saturday, September 22 from 10am to 5pm. This is to be held indoors at the Holiday Inn on HWY 190 in Covington, LA. See you there!
