BIG ART WEEK!

This is going to be one week that is very full of art activities.  I have paintings to deliver, mats to cut, a presentation of the French art trip to give ending with an art fair on Sunday.  Needless to say, I have mats to cut, cookies to bake and all that goes into preparing an outdoor exhibit.  Here are the details and a few paintings of the week's events!

Tuesday Evening - September 15th, 7:00pm,  - those of us that traveled to France to paint in June will present a program to the Wabash Valley Artists Society at TAF, 683 North Street, Lafayette, Indiana. We are also preparing an art exhibit for the months of November and December.

The Wabash Valley Artists Society has it's annual juried show opening reception this Friday evening, September 18th at 7:00 at TAF as well.  I will drop off my two paintings today.  The show will be open September 18th - October 23rd.

Sunday, September 20th is the annual art fair on the banks of the Wabash River.  This will be my second year to be a part of this juried art fair: Art on the Wabash.  I will be at the same location as last year, booth #6.

Art on the Wabash; A Local Artists’ Fair will be held at West Lafayette’s Tapawingo Park from 10 AM to 4 PM on Sunday, September 20, 2015.  This juried fair features work from artists in a 15 county area and is presented by the City of West Lafayette with technical assistance from Tippecanoe Arts Federation and sponsorship funding from KitchenArt, The Store for Cooks.

I almost forgot to mention that this is also the week of the "Art for Cats" fundraiser in Lafayette.

Details of the event can be found at this web site: http://www.lovingheartanimalshelter.org/2015-art-for-cats-gallery-show/   I painted "Miss Madison,"  a rescue kitty that belong to a friend of mom's.  Miss Madison is no longer with us, but she gave her owner, and my mom, great pleasure.

Painting my Garden

Sunflowers, morning glories and zenias, all calling me into the backyard to paint them these past weeks.  I've also been putting some finishing touches on the paintings from France as well as creating some new ones.
I'm getting some ready for the Wabash Valley Artists Society juried show, September 18th and Art on the Wabash, September 20th.

Along with painting for the shows, some art friends told me about a web site to sell my art work:  www.redbubble.com.  I've uploaded several of my paintings to the site that are available to be printed on a variety of articles, phone covers, pillow cushions, mugs, journal covers, cards as well as art prints.  You just go to the redbubble site and type in Artzart to find what is available.
