Everglades~!


I am putting the Italian Series on hold... and heading off to the Everglades National Park. I have the Artist-in-Residency to experience!

It's fun, scary, and an adventure. I've never done anything like this before-- so don't know what to expect.

But I am GAME!

My quarters in the Park are right down the road from the ALLIGATOR FARM! woo hoo! I see many good paintings ahead!

I am armed with my camera, watercolors, bike, snorkel and mask. I hope to walk, hike, swim, snorkel, canoe, boat, air boat, and drive my way through the Glades for the better part of the month in hopes of getting enough information to do a compelling visual exploration of the fragile oasis known as the Everglades!


Please come back here to see and read all that I discover.

There won't be any internet in the Park -- but I will find connection every few days when I go to Homestead.


Enjoy!

Coconut Grove Art Fair



A hot day.... like summer.... at the Coconut Grove Art Fair in Coconut Grove Florida. You really couldn't imagine how much art and craft! The art was everywhere... and the crowds were huge.

We got there early -- which was a very good thing-- because it was easy to walk and see the work.

The beaded sculpture was the BEST OF SHOW -- and i enjoyed this work a lot.

I couldn't quite tell if there were a lot of sales-- but it seems as though not many people purchasing work.
But the quality of work was good... and we had a great time looking :-))
