Spring and 2 Awards!

Fallen behind on my entries and time to catch up a bit.  "Dance of the Planets" was selected for the annual Shirt Factory Gallery juried show.  I love crystal marbles and have always wanted to try to capture the sparkle and and bouncing light they capture.


"Pillows" was juried into the North Country Arts juried show at their new location in the Glens Falls Shirt Factory.  The afternoon light creeping across my sofa is a daily phenomenon that often makes me pause to enjoy.

"Playing Hookey" was accepted for both the Adirondack Artists juried show and the Cooperstown Art Association "Essential Arts" regional juried art show where it received the Florence Peaslee Ward prize.  A stern rooster schoolmaster with his little, unformed egg pupils.  Except for one hookey player enjoying a bit of stolen freedom under the bridge.

 
"Silk Road Stroll" was chosen for the Central Adirondack "VIEW" art show where it was selected for the Master's Division and also received 1st prize for best drawing.  The beauty and mystery of faraway places.  Feeding the soul.
