Cape Elizabeth... Engine One Labor Day Art Show

Just a hint of what is drying in the studio. Tomorrow (Sunday) this fresh one will go to Cape Elizabeth. It is one in a series of paintings done with a striped tablecloth. I think I will call it "Tulip Pot with Curly Feet". Hope to see you! 10-4, Fort Williams Park, site #35. A little drizzle never hurt anyone, but bring your umbrella just in case.

Portland Sidewalk Art Festival, August 24th, 9 to 4

We are almost ready to go. The Portland Sidewalk Art Festival is one of the largest, longest running art shows in New England. Here is my latest color from the easel that's going with me this Saturday. Look for me AND Mal at N-10 (my favorite spot) which is a short walk from the monument and city center. If you haven't been to Portland in a while, this may be the time to go. Nice 70's temps, lots of art, great cafes, sea air.... love it all. See you there!

I'm taking dessert to my next art show

Join me.... There are going to be TONS of artists....you may actually find something delicious :-)

Social Artistry... a workshop in Exeter

These leadership techniques are applicable in all personal, creative, educational, business and faith communities. This workshop teaches these concepts in a manner engaging to both youth and adults. No art experience is needed. All materials are included." Contact Exeter Fine Crafts for more information 603-770-1489

South Portland Art in the Park... yeah, baby!

You've been checkin' the weather... keeping your fingers crossed... and it looks like it's going to be a winner of a day! Boy, have we had some rain today. But tomorrow, Saturday, August 10, will be lovely - just right for an art show. South Portland Art in the Park is from 9 to 5. It's the 34th annual. I love this show. Great organizers, great artists, music, kid's activities, all in lovely Mill Creek Park. Hope to see you.
