I am getting closer to accomplishing my goal....   100 bugs and then writing a children's book.


I am at bug 72.... and counting.


Here are five new ones!  They are more colorful and compositional than the the others.

I am challenging myself to be the "most" creative with the final 28-- so that the collection really SINGS!

Insect- o - mania!!!!

I have been working on 100 Bugs for the past few weeks.  The project stemmed out of my Holiday show.  It's been gathering steam-- both in life and online.  I am up to 55 bugs and counting!

I will be having a show of them this spring.  I am also planning a book and deck of flash cards.  Also perhaps playing cards.


Whew!!

Stay tuned and see more~~

Holiday Open Studio 2012

Holiday Open Studio

The open studio on Friday was a huge success!  There were 200 people that came through the studio during the afternoon/evening.

Sales were brisk....  with over half of the smaller paintings leaving for private collections.

It was a fun time... complete with hot apple cider, wine, and holiday cookies.

Thank you to everyone for coming-- you made the evening special!

If anyone is interested in the remaining smaller, affordable original watercolors remaining-- please email me or visit my other blog for images.

Ann Arbor Michigan Watercolor Workshop

A beautiful workshop in Ann Arbor Michigan 

Last week was spent in Ann Arbor Michigan -- teaching 12 students my approach to watercolor.

It was a lively, special time-- and LOTS of great painters!

They were all execeptional -- and accomplished the projects in record time -- and together as a group.  There was great cohesion to the group-- and we all learned a variety of technique.

Thank you to everyone for coming-- and especially to Debra Zamperla for organizing the event.

Ann Arbor Rocks!
