East Austin Studio Tour 2007
The tour this year was great. Even with a little rain on Saturday, over 110 people did make it to my little home studio for the tour. I believe most of the people who came had specifically picked out my work to come see. Considering there were about 210 artists and over 100 studios on the tour this year — and that my studio in not located in the thick of East Austin — I’m very happy that many people managed to make it here.
Poppies Painting Series

This series was inspired by a split-second view I had from BBC News of poppies growing in a field in Afghanistan — it just showed a couple of pods on stems. I took it from there. As with all my encaustic paintings, there is a depth of beauty to these that has to be seen in person to be appreciated.
