Red River Revel is almost here!!!!

By this time next week I will be all set up and will already have seen some of my Shreveport friends and collectors!  I can't wait to get my double booth (my first time to have one!) set up and filled with all my new artwork. 

The painting above is one that I re-worked from last year.  Below is the original.  At last year's Revel one of my visitors suggested that a heron would look really good in this scene.  So I added one and changed the surroundings a little bit.  I like it much better now, don't you?

Come see it in person if you are in the Shreveport area.  The show runs from Saturday, September 28 through Sunday, October 6.  It's bigtime fun!!!  Hope to see you there!

Walking Heron at Dauphin Island Oil Painting...

Dauphin Island Neighbor.....18x36........$775

 

I took this photo when we vacationed on Dauphin Island last year.  There is a bird sanctuary there and this guy has definitely made himself at home.  He just played it cool and walked right past me on several occasions.

 

IT'S ALMOST SEPTEMBER!!!!  Sunday begins the 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenge I mentioned in my last post.  I work rather large sometimes and one painting may spill over into more than one day, so therefore my goal is to feature a new piece each day that has been done this summer. (And believe me 30 posts in 30 days is a challenge for me, in itself!) Whenever possible I will post a painting that I did that day, but when that is not feasible my other new work will be there to take up the slack.

 

MEANWHILE, we are off to New Orleans this afternoon for the Palmer Park Art Market tomorrow.  It looks like it will be a hot time in the old town! 

 

Have a great Labor Day everyone!
