Two Year Hiatus!

 After a two year hiatus, I am once again posting on my blog.  The lack of posts does not represent my art activity at all!  During these past two years I have painted more than ever, participated in exhibits, had a solo exhibit, have begun teaching watercolor classes at the Art Museum of Greater Lafayette (Indiana) and Wesminster Village Lafayette, Indiana. 

Currently I am teaching painting spring florals.

I have also begun teaching porcelain painting again after many years.  It was my first love that developed as I took classes here in Lafayette, Indiana in the 1970's.  As it turns out, my first porcelain teacher passed away and all of her supplies plus those of her porcelain painting friends, were donated to the Greater Lafayette Art Museum.  When I found out I could teach porcelain painting again, it was like a kiss from heaven!  My life has come full circle.

A new experience for me, I was juried into a paint out to support the Indianapolis Zoo.  April 15 I get to paint any animal, plant or what inspires me at the zoo. The paintings will be on display all summer and auctioned off at a gala in August.

I submitted a couple of my fine feathered friends paintings for the jury process.  I can't wait to see what inspires me at the zoo.

My submissions.

The Chapel Gallery in Delphi, Indiana, is a quaint venue.  This month I am the featured artist.  You can see (and purchase_ about 40 of my framed pieces plus matted originals as well as cards.

A quick peek!

This brings the blog briefly up to date for now.  More later!
