New Artwork

I’ve been working on a pet portrait of a sweet cat, and it is finally finished and with its new owner. I took progress shots as I went along, so I thought I would make a little slideshow to show how the painting progressed. Here it is:

Here are the progress shots that are shown in the video. I hope you enjoy seeing how this beautiful cat looked along the way!

And The Winner Is…

We enjoyed being at the Freedom Festival Craft Show in Waynesville this past weekend. We talked with lots of great folks and sold some good stuff!

We drew a name after the show for out booth’s door prize. The winner was Jennifer Caldwell! I delivered the basket to Jennifer yesterday, and her big smile says it all. Congratulations, Jennifer! I hope you and your family enjoy all the goodies.

“Freedom Festival Craft Show”

Hi, everyone! Just wanted to let you know that we will be selling our art and crafts this weekend at the “Freedom Festival Craft Show” in Waynesville, NC. The show will take place at the Smoky Mountain Event Center (Haywood County Fairgrounds) at 758 Crabtree Rd. in Waynesville, NC! It is sponsored by the Blue Ridge Artists and Crafters Association, with more than 35 vendors. We will be there Saturday and Sunday, July 10 & 11, and the show will be open from 9:00-4:00 both days. There will be lots of vendors with lots of wonderful handmade crafts! It is an inside show, so we won’t have to worry about getting wet if it rains. If you are going to be in the area, please come check it out!

I will have original paintings, matted prints, a few framed prints on canvas, note cards, painted wooden signs, crocheted dishcloths, and more! There will be hourly show-wide door prizes, and our booth will have a separate door prize that will be given away after the show. If you purchase something from my booth, you will also receive a coupon for 20% off a custom portrait or pet portrait!
