• This painting holds very special memories from my trip to France last year.  This ram has a 400 year old bell around it’s neck and leads his flock.  He stopped and listened to my dangling ear buds to some music as I reached out and petted him.  He didn’t linger but it was a very special moment captured as I was plein air painting a small little chapel with a statuette of Jesus with the lost sheep around his neck.

• There are two shows starting this upcoming weekend March 3rd.  The Connecticut Pastel Society will be holding their Member show at Gallery 53 in Meriden.  I have chosen Ewe (you) are Never alone.  The opening reception is Saturday March 3, from 2-4.

          and I have two acrylic paintings in the Rowayton Arts Center in their upcoming show “Brushworks”.  My Moonlit    Waters and A Field in Bloom.  The opening reception is Sunday March 4 from 4-6.  Hope to see you there.

• Just found out today that my pastel Poppies in Provence took first place at the Rowayton Art Center in their upcoming show Expressions.  I am so very happy and honored.  The judge said “the artist had a mastery with pastel and her strong composition and use of color and light was so beautiful.  Looks just like Provence.”  The opening reception is this coming Sunday 4-6.  Please stop by and see the exhibit.

• Rowayton Art Center announced today my acceptance as an Exhibiting Artist in their Gallery.  I am very honored and excited to have been selected and am looking forward to participating in many of the their upcoming exhibitions.  It is a beautiful Gallery and the scenery is wonderful.
