Bottle Museum Anniversary Show!

My bottle drawing, "Guard Dog", is current among the bottle-themed artwork on display at the National Bottle Museum in Ballston Spa, New York.  The Museum is celebrating its 10th year and chose to mark the milestone with a special retrospective on all the area artists who have ever participated in any of the events in their art gallery section.  The Museum is located at 76 Milton Avenue in Ballston Spa.  The show runs through September 1 and the hours are 10am-4pm Friday-Tuesday, closed Wednesday and Thursday.

"Guard Dog" is a little scene I see every day in a little window by my stairway.  It was really challenging to draw the little glints of colored light and sparkle coming through the old bottles.  The dog figurine sat on the table at my grandmother's house to hold the toothpicks!
