I am really excited to invite you all to my home Sept. 16 & 17, 2023. I'll have all my artwork on display, and my art studio will be full of artwork in progress. My originals and prints will be for sale, with a large discount tent of things that have to go: scratch & dent, overstock, and irregulars. I'll have a presentation on my inspiration for my artwork, and a process talk in the studio about how I make my various styles of art. I'll be taking orders for commission artwork, and there will be appetizers and herbal iced tea + wine on hand. As you park on the street and walk up the driveway, there will be signs to my circular forest hiking path. You are welcome to take self-guided tours to the tree house and back yard as well. Come see why Evergreen has been the muse on my shoulder these past seven years. I hope you get to explore this little 2 acer plot of mine and hear why this house is a formidable character in my artistic story. You can make a weekend out of it, as I'm number 20 of 26 on the home tour this year, so download the tour guidebook with maps and directions to each artist's home. I encourage you to visit other artist studios and I am really honored to live in a community that has so many talented artisans. I hope it can be a great weekend for you to take home some early holiday gifts for your loved ones, or for yourself (you deserve it!). |
Finding photos from the past that match their current continuation photos was my time traveler's delight. Memory lane is joyfully beautiful, and seeing them glow and grow in the present moment is a ride I'll never want to exit. Oh how so much has changed, but the curiosity, wonder, and awe of the world around them has stayed exactly the same. These young humans with old souls teach me love, compassion, joy, and newness everyday.
Together, they move on to the next big school reaching forward to find their future, inward to find their strength & self worth, and upward to find their connection to it all. May your journey be sound, sweet ones. I've got two new Steamboat Springs paintings to introduce today. Fish Creek Falls and downtown Steamboat & Mt. Werner. These are two iconic landscapes and destinations for Steamboat Springs, which is truly one of the most magical towns in Colorado.
