More From the Show...

Today's painting was a bit of an experiment, and it hasn't quite reached a conclusion, so instead of posting it, I thought it'd be a good time to post some photos from the opening and from my "What To Keep" series. I'll be posting more of each throughout the week.

The first one of mine to sell was "Keep Faith",
10"x10" watercolor, ink, grease pencil, red conte



All ten together...



The gallery was pretty packed from start to finish. Thank you again to everyone who came out on such a rainy night!



Here I am with my dear friend who came all the way from Chicago for the opening...

The Nevin Kelly Gallery opening was awesome. A really wonderful night for me. Thank you to each and every one of you who came! I'll post photos from the big night this week.

I'm excited to get back to my daily paintings!

The 10 paintings for the Nevin Kelly show are done! Just finished last night. So, today I finally had to time work out the Ebay glitches I was experiencing last week. Now my listing is up and running, so if you're interested, feel free to start bidding. The link to the auction is up above the painting. The bidding will start at $99 and there is no reserve. I think this will be a fun change of pace. Please email me with any questions.

Everyone is invited to the gallery opening on Thursday, 6-9pm, 1517 U St. NW. Hope to see you there!

I'll be getting back to the daily paintings very soon!

"Keep In Mind"

10"x10"
watercolor with mixed media

This is another painting from my "What To Keep" series that I'll be showing at the Nevin Kelly Gallery. It's a double portrait of my two grandmothers, whom I adore, when they were about my age.

Hi Everyone,

I'm still here! I promise! I have only one more week to work on my paintings for the upcoming show at Nevin Kelly Gallery. I took yesterday and today to focus on them because I wasn't getting enough work time at night after finishing my daily paintings. The dailies will be back soon! I'll jump back in right after I finish the last painting for the show. Thank you so much for your patience. Next week, I'll post some more show pieces, and I've been thinking of putting one of my 11"x14" paintings up for sale. Instead of doing first come, first serve for that one, I might try auctioning it off on eBay so that more of you can have a chance to think if over and possibly snag it.

And just a reminder, if you want my paintings to be automatically emailed to you as soon as I post them, sign up for the Email Subscribe group on the righthand side of the screen.

Have a great weekend! It's almost Happy Hour!
