Here is Pookie again - and she is almost done. I still need to add her whiskers, but I like the existing paint to be dry before I start that detail. When the existing paint is dry, if I don't like the whisker after I paint it, I can gently wipe it off and start again without worrying about messing up the layer underneath. Once the whiskers are on and dry, I'll be sending her off to her new owner. (Thank you!)I have some good news to share! My painting of Ollie, the Jack Russell Terrier, won a People's Choice award in the MugShots exhibition at the Canine Art Guild. Thank you to everyone who voted for Ollie. I truly appreciate it.
This week I'll be busy getting ready for the Toe River Arts Councils' Studio Tours that take place this weekend. On Friday I will load up my favorite paintings and take them over to the Selena Glass & Metal Studio and share their wonderful space for the tour. This will be my third time showing my work on the tour. The studio will be quite busy with visitors. It's great fun. If you are anywhere near Burnsville, be sure to stop in!
And there's one more bit of good news. Snickers, one of the dogs I painted of FiFi's Friends, has been adopted. Yay!!!
Thanks for reading!
