WAR-Artists Respond Exhibit
I will have a few pieces in a show titled “WAR-Artists Respond” at the Dougherty Arts Center from November 2 to November 27, 2007. The exhibit will feature the artwork of more than 60 Central Texas visual artists who’ve taken on the challenge to reflect on the meaning of war and our role in creating it.
An opening reception will be held next Friday, November 2nd, 2007, at the Dougherty Arts Center, 1110 Barton Springs Road, from 6 to 9pm. Poetry, song and Butoh dancers performing in the theater of the DAC will give emphasis to the visual art.

East Austin Studio Tour
I will be opening my home studio to the public again this year for the 6th Annual East Austin Studio Tour on Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 17th & 18th from 10am to 5pm. This year, there are 210 artists showing at 120 studios!
I will have over 2 dozen new paintings on display, primarily in encaustic (pigment suspended in a wax medium), including many new abstracts, more paintings of tornadoes, plus hurricanes and other explosions. My paintings, plus prints and cards of both my new and my previous works, will be available to purchase.
Consider starting (or ending) your tour at my studio (my studio is likely to be the one at the most north-west corner of the whole tour area, as it was last year).
More information is available online at the East Austin Studio Tour website: www.eastaustinstudiotour.com. I should have a limited number of tour books available (first come, first served), as well as a number of tour maps.
12 Buy 12 Show at Artspoken Gallery & Studios
I have had some of my work juried into the 3rd Annual 12 Buy 12 Show at Artspoken Gallery & Studios, from December 1 – 22, 2007. There will be an opening reception on December 1st, from 6 to 8pm. I hope you can come!
All artwork in the show is created on 12″ square gallery wrapped canvases (or equivalent). I will have several beautiful new encaustic paintings on 2″ deep cradled plywood in this show.

My work is always available to view or purchase on my fine art website: http://www.marilynfenn.com. I often post my new work first on my blog, where you can also read a little bit about my process (and perhaps a ramble or two about other art-related matters): http://www.marilynfenn.com/. You may arrange a studio visit at other times by contacting me: Contact.
Cheers,
Marilyn
I am an abstract and representational painter. I paint primarily in oil, but I also work in a variety of other media. This is my blog; my art site is at Marilyn Fenn Studio, and you can purchase my art at Marilyn Fenn Shop.
