Guess what time it is…. That’s right!  Art-a-Whirl!

Published

Just two weeks away.

Details on AAW

This year I’m participating in Passports on Parade this weekend too! Check out the website for more details and how to get your passport- there is a limited amount so do not hesitate.

Passports on Parade

I call it a scavenger hunt for artists’ stamps in the passport.  Why do this?  Opportunities to learn about the artist and their visions, see great art, and win $500.00 credit to spend on ACW artwork!  I know, AWESOME!

Side note:

My stamp is CheeBah approved!  Who doesn’t love a Corgi?? 

Below are some samples you will see this weekend.

Sometimes the path in life is not clearly defined.  The only thing you can do is breathe deeply, put your faith in the universe, and take the first step.  Life’s road will have curves, enjoy them as they will bring you to wonderful places if you surrender.  Road trips allow my mind to wander and absorb what Mother Nature shows me.  I especially love watching the landscape change from mountains to desert; from city to Rolling country farms; brightly colored flowers to drab gray foggy scenes.  All of these are gifts from her, so give thanks.  Get out in nature and recharge your soul!

Holiday Art Show at Solar Arts!

The holiday season is now upon us and what better way to celebrate the seasons is with a gift made from an artist.  I will again be at Solar Arts BLDG in Fox Den under Art to Change the world selling my fabulous photoziacs amongst other talented artists.  This year I will offer up both my formal and commando series photoziacs. 

I do commission work so if you have an interest in that please come by with the image and we can discuss framing options for you.

Below are a few examples of what I will have with me and I hope to have room to demonstrate how I create my art.
