Back in Houston

OKC Festival of the Arts never disappoints me... I love this show. We came home and then went back out to Baton Rouge for a new show "Fest for All". I would only suggest this event if you live in the area and participate in their Artist Market once a month event or if you have crafts (fine crafts). The attendance seemed okay but not lots of buying going on. We made a couple of sales and just covered travel and show expenses with nothing left over.

We are off this weekend to attend Ashley's graduation from Houston Baptist University. I am so excited to see her with her cap and gown...This is such a wonderful achievement which she has worked so very hard to achieve. What a wonderful young woman.

Towards the middle of May and for 8 weeks we have a busy schedule and hopefully good sales. It will be interesting to see how the sales progress this year.

While Oklahoma was down for many people, it was still the best show I have done all year.

May God bless all of you and keep safe.

Arts council of OKC

Just finished the second day of the Festival of the Arts in Oklahoma City. We are never disappointed by the large crowds and enthusiasm of the people that attend this event.
I am posting a small photo of a Mother-Daughter painting for one of my collectors interested in perhaps getting a print of this art. I had this painting last year in OKC but sold it in June in Omaha, NE.

It was extremely hot today so I had to take my afternoon nap in Myriad Gardens Park. It was a glorious 45 minute power nap.....

Tomorrow there will be an artist breakfast for all of us so we will be at the show early. Tonight Guiteau and I reflected on what wonderful neighbors our fellow artists are. It is a great community of which we are honored to share.

Must get some shut-eye tonight for another long but worthwhile day at the festival. God bless you all and thanks to all of you who enable us to continue our love of producing artwork for you.
