AVOCA MUSEUM IN ALTAVISTA ON THE PERFECT SPRING DAY

Hey Friends,  Hope you don't think it's TOO weird to start a post in a cemetary?!

The Avoca Museum in Altavista has a beautiful little round plot enclosed with a rock wall.  And the first thing to catch my eye, was the picasso-ess or ish female in mourning.

I think she is beautiful.  Maybe I need one.

After leaving all the merri-makers (DoubleLinePainters) in Altavista, I chugged on over to the Smith Mountain Lake State Park to see what was blooming.  I had to go through Huddleston to get home and don't ya know, there is gang after gang of cows !  I was braking all the way.  And of course the cows didn't know whether to run or cry.  

It always tickles me the way they struggle to stand up and just look at you.  Don't move a muscle.  They must think I'm a predator.  Can you see me from their point of view?

Wind whipping the white hair all around and a purple camera for an eyeball.

Funny Enough.

Now I hope all of you will go take a look at my new website !!!

I like it ( alot) even though I'm not finished.

Tell me what you think.

PS--I have done everything I can think of to make the address clickable.  Nothing seems to work. 

So please just type it in the bar up there, thanks.

2nd FRIDAY ART WALK AT GOOSE CREEK, BEDFORD, VA.

Hey Friends, I've been busy with a business class and almost forgot to post about Sally Koopman's beautiful show at the Goose Creek Gallery in DT Bedford, Va.

It opened this past Friday night and will be up thru sometime in April.

Don't know is you can see the red dots up top but I think 5 of them have found homes. I know she is super excited about that.

They had a pretty good sized crowd when I left.

Hope you all had a great weekend.

CRITTER SHOW TO BE HUNG IN APRIL AT 2ND HELPINGS GALLERY IN ROANOKE

Hey Friends,  I think I'm almost finished with animals for the Critter Exhibit by DLP's.

We (the DLP's) also have a big exhibit going up 1st of May at the Arts Depot in Abingdon, Va.

The one above is painted on Masa Rice Paper that has powdered charcoal sprinkled on it first thing after the crackling and india ink bath.

The rice paper is adhered to a deep cradled board and the image created with acrylics.  The deep sides are painted black and it is all varnished.

Now how about a title ? ! ?

Anybody want to suggest a title?

How about- "Mom, what is it?"

I would welcome something not quite so lame.

Thanks for stopping.
