Helena Spring Art Walk

Friday Art Walk was awesome. It was a beautiful night with great art and a great turnout. 

Ceramic artist, Jess Kane exhibited her recycled boutique baby clothes with much success. Her hand made ceramic buttons and eye for color and pattern make me want to be a kid again.

Cleaning Out The Cobwebs

20 Minute Paintings #15 - 2009

I'm gearing up for my next set of paintings. Lots of research and fun play time composing future painting in the old sketchbook. I will be constructing wood panels to paint on in the next couple of weeks. With the new studio space, I'm thinking BIG!

Sketchbook Saturday #2

About a month ago Shannon Hughes and I started Sketchbook Saturday. It's a awesome excuse to be creative and hang out with great friends. We pick a creative topic, execute it, and show it off at the next meeting.

Today was our second Sketchbook Saturday and a tasty one at that. Shannon's topic was to create a food item or a floral arrangement with an emphasis on esthetic and taste. Crafty Shannon made a fantastic spring roll bouquet and I baked some sweet and savory, red grape and rosemary tapas. We drank mint and lemon balm ice tea under the spring sun in Shannon's back yard and for a moment, just a moment, we may have forgotten we were in Helena.

Thanks Shannon!
