apologies

Saturday, June 13, 2009

I am sorry I am not at the Bentonville Art Walk.  I set up my tent too early for the weather’s liking and it was destroyed in the storm. Fortunately no artwork was lost or damaged. I have been through far worse at shows. In another time I would have immediately shelled out more money [...]

Dinner Bell Ranch

Monday, June 8, 2009

My godson loves animals, always has. One of his favorite places to spend time is at the Dinner Bell Ranch. Here is about to ride up the mountain on Speck. When they returned, I was surprised to see he was in the lead. This weekend he went out to give Geralyn a hand on a [...]

My art is in the Arkansas Tour Guide, twice!

Tuesday, June 2, 2009

I picked up a copy of the 2009 Arkansas Tour Guide at Petit Jean State Park last week and had a good surprise.

On the page about Eureka Springs, the photo is of the Artery’s original installation and those huge kiwis are my painting. My godson and I were tickled by that and I mentioned it [...]

polymer clay, people!

Monday, June 1, 2009

Here is a silly polymer clay piece that I made from the distorted remnants of a face cane. Polymer clay is so much fun to work with and so forgiving that it is an equally great medium for people who are new to art and artists looking for inspiration to loosen up. I will be [...]

Petit Jean Mountain with Ryan

Sunday, May 31, 2009

The Arts In the Air exhibit at the Rockefeller Institute ended last week and the trip to pick up my paintings was the perfect opportunity for my godson and I to enjoy Petit Jean State Park. First stop was the overlook near the grave of Petit Jean. It provided tremendous views of the Arkansas River [...]

Old worn out running shoes is a 12″ x 12″ painting in acrylic on canvas. The image is my godson’s last pair of shoes, before he became a runner. He wears one pair of shoes every day until they are completely worn out. I made step by step photos of this painting which you can [...]

summer is coming

Friday, May 22, 2009

After rain and grey skies 18 out of 21 days, it finally feels like spring.  I have done a thorough spring cleaning and if the view through the sparkiling windows doesn’t quite get me into the spirit of the season, my godson does. He has recently taken up running and his joyfulness after a run [...]

student paintings

Wednesday, May 20, 2009

One extra session later, these cheerful and hard-working girls completed their paintings. I am very happy with their ability to develop an idea and see it through to the finished work. Both Sam and Sabrina tried new techniques and found great success in carrying off what they sought to acheive. I like watching them make [...]
