Good news from the Phippen Museum in Prescott, Arizona. I've been accepted into their 43rd Annual Western Art Show & Sale! Read below for the details...
43rd Annual Western Art Show & Sale
In my last newsletter I explained about the Indian Relay and how it sparked a fire of inspiration into my studio work. As much as I love creating the paintings, I had to be honest with myself regarding it's marketability in my neck of the woods here in upstate New York. To test the waters and with fingers crossed, I applied to the Phippen Art Museum's 43rd Annual Western Art Show & Sale. To my delighted surprise, I was accepted! The show isn't until Memorial Day weekend, but I'm too excited not to share with you.
Road trip!

For the past several months, I've been posting older, collected work at the bottom of this newsletter. It's just for fun, to reminisce a bit. Be sure to scroll down to view it.
I really appreciate that you read this newsletter and follow my exploits. Thanks for supporting me as I explore different venues, subjects and ways to portray them in paint.

If you know someone who may be interested in my artwork, I'd be so grateful if you would forward this newsletter to them via the link below. Thank you so much!
This was painted when we had our racing stable at Hollywood Park in California (which is no more, unfortunately). The horse path leads down to the track from the barn area at the half-mile pole. The hill was covered in short, purple-y flowers. So pretty.
