More fun art!

This piece is the third in a series I have done recently on thoughts and stream of consciousness.  I really love the face in this one and her lavender afro!!  So pretty!  I have repeated some imagery from all three pieces to make them more cohesive.
I would love to get these licensed for Barnes and Noble book bags or skateboards or something fun!  If you have any connections with any companies that would use this work, please let me know!

Thanks so much for any comments and don't forget to check out my website for more work and to purchase this piece, or reproductions of it!

Pretending to be a celebrity...

Well, today I got to pre-sign some of the show posters for Celebration of the Arts in May.  I am the distinguished artist this year, so my painting, "Sunflower," is featured.  I am so proud to be chosen, but it amuses me a little to sign the posters like I am a "pseudo-celebrity."  Just enjoying the moment!

For those of you who come to the show May 18-20, I will sign and personalize a poster just for you!  So, please come out and see me!

Fun at the Lubbock First Friday Art Trail

I just got back from spending time with a very good friend and a new friend at the Lubbock Art Trail.  I went out to Lubbock to check out a space that I will be displaying in at the Good Brews Coffee Shop in June.  That night was also the monthly Art Walk!

It's a fun way to get out and see some art.  You start out at one of the gallery or art spaces on the route.  You can ride the trolley for free to any of the spots and there are free beverages at many stops as well as beer and wine for sale!  We at fresh pizza cooked in a brick oven by a vendor and it really hit the spot!

I really enjoyed the art and installations at the LHUCA center.  There were some figurative and conceptual art as well as a potter and jeweler nearby.  At the other stops there was art by the college students as well as some fabric crafters and more jewelry. 

The weather was great and it was quite an adventure!  I highly recommend the experience!  It happens the first Friday of every month from 6:30-9pm!

As I am notoriously bad at snapping pics... I have no images to share.  I will strive to do better next time!

Award!!

I won a second place award in a National Juried Art Show this week!  I am so pumped!! So, now this piece is also an award winner!
