new art and an art show...

Later on today (ack! is it today already??) I'll be at the Monte Sano art show here in Huntsville www.montesanoartshow.org/

It's looking to be a really beautiful day, a great day in fact to stroll around the lovely park and look at some art! Bil and I went up this afternoon and set up my tent and display, so, all I need to do is hang my artwork in the morning. I did manage to finish a new painting today as well, and will be taking it to the show. Yeah, I know it's still wet, but, so what? lol I've done that before...nothing like being last minute. And besides, I still have some prints to package up and some cards as well...yes, I'm that last minute! Anyway....stop on by and say hi if you are in the area!

Here's a few views of the new painting...tough to photograph because it's wet, so there's some glare, but, you get the idea. It's big...24x36. I call him "The Lazy Sitter"

new landscapes...

Worked on these two paintings over the last day or so, a couple of small landscapes. I submitted them today for inclusion in the Unique Views of Huntsville exhibit at the Huntsville Museum of Art in mid-September. I'll find out next week if they get juried in. Unique Views showcases the work of local artists painting scenes around the Huntsville area. The sunflower field in my painting is on Redstone Arsenal, an army base here in town that also houses the NASA facility Marshall Space Flight Center, where my husband works. I love sunflowers and really enjoyed painting these scenes...hopefully more in this series to follow. Both are 8x10 and done in acrylics on gallery wrap canvas.

stop by and say hi tonight!

I'll be here at the stroll, so say hi if you are there! It's going to be a beautiful evening and lots of wonderful art to look at, don't miss out!
