Portugal
Recently I entered three pieces in an exhibition at the Cottonwood Center for the Arts in Colorado Springs. The theme was “Motifs” and “Patterns”, a very good fit for my art. All three of my giclees were florals in repeat, inspired by my travels to Portugal and to Taos, New Mexico. A gentleman who spends …
Traveling and Creating
This year I have been lucky enough to spend some time traveling. From Portugal to New Mexico, and the mountains of Colorado. All along, I have been taking photos and jotting down ideas, either to use in my garden, or my licensing collections. After spending months working on my property, I realized how much I …
Creating new work
It’s been a while since I have posted an update. My foundation repairs on the house and studio have been taking up a lot of time. I have however created a number of new collections that are ready for licensing. It’s been fun working in a brighter palette as on my last trip to the …

Atlanta Gift Show
Last Friday I arrived in Atlanta (my parents home town) to attend the Gift Show; my flight was a day late due to a bit of snow at the airport. This seemed rather silly to me as I live in Colorado, but the delay must have been due to de-icing challenges. It was good to …

Art Hardware in Colorado Springs had their art opening ” Winter in the Rockies” on Friday night; I have four pieces in the show, two fabric and embroidery pieces, and two winter scenes with people painted in a primitive style with a crackled texture. Several artists were showing pieces with winter themes, a potter, several …
Art marketing
Today I started a new marketing program that is based on the book “How To Get Clients Now”; my coach Donna Feldman from Denver is helping me with this process. The markets that I usually work in have changed so drastically so this is a good time to have a new strategy. The program consists …
