The "Route Eleven Show" is ready to hang

Hey My Dear Friends,  Today the DLP and myself, laid out all the paintings going to the Exhibit at the Arts Depot in Abingdon, Va. this coming week.  A LOT of work and planning has gone into this exhibit.

Above is one of my oil paintings title "An Offering to the Future" will be hanging.

I keep a list of titles in a notebook, ongoing, so I never can remember where I hear or read these titles and I'm hoping I didn't copy anyone I know.

The reception is from 6 until 8pm on Thursday May 5th, 2016.

Please join us. It will be fun to see you.  And bring your friends.

And click HERE for directions.  And HERE for my new blog.

30 in 30 - Day 21

Hey Friends,  This is an unusual item for me.  I've only done a few of these cold wax paintings.  It takes months to dry and that's the reason.

This is started with a base of genuine silver leaf on a 4" sq. ampersand cradled panel.  Then the cold wax is mixed with the oils and applied with a knife.  I then used a rubber shelf liner to impress the pattern in the wax.  The area for the Water Lily is smoothed out and when dry (months later) I painted the Water Lily !

Would make a sweet and unusual gift for the gardener in your life.

Check it out HERE in my ETSY shop.
