Where did summer go?
It is already October, and I've just participated in my very first 3 day Ojai Studio Artists Tour!
I am so proud to be a part of this esteemed arts association in my hometown of Ojai. I had a lot of fun over the three days, talking to people about my work, taking in the comments and observations about my paintings and selling several paintings, prints and packs of cards. The two paintings shown here have gone home with collectors who attended on the weekend.
One big bonus was that my daughter helped me during two days of the event, and it was a gift to spend some time with her.
Next year OSA will be resuming their Second Saturday open studios where each month a small group of us in a vicinity will welcome visitors to our studios. More on that next year!
I had a painting juried into the Art about Agriculture exhibit at the Santa Paula Art Museum this year. This will be my second Ag Art show. The painting I submitted is titled "Vegetable Soup" and measures 12x15 inches. The show runs from November 12, 2022-March 5, 2023, with an opening reception on November 12, from 4pm-6pm. Admission is required if you are not a museum member. The Ag Art exhibit shows artwork of many genres, I recommend this wonderful show, and it's great for families.
Today I will be going up into the studio where I am working on the drawing for a new painting about crows. I've been reading a lot about them, looking at crow photos from all over the world, and staring out the window at our own group of 3 crows that visit our yard every day.
Thanks for reading my artist blog, I'll be back next month!
