Expand Your Horizons, Part 3

One more venue where my art is being shown is the Bulverde/Spring Branch Library, in Bulverde, Texas.  My thanks to Adette Irish, the Community Display Coordinator of Canyon Lake Art Guild, for arranging the venue for our artists to show their paintings!  Since the display is in the hallway, it was hard to get just one or two photos of all of them.  The library also wrote up a very nice article on me and put it in the local Comal Chronicle.  I feel like a celebrity!

The paintings will be on display until the end of August, so if you are in the area, stop by and take a peek.  Another friend/artist, Leila Reynolds, also has her paintings on display there and they are beautiful to see.

I am happy to share the good news that my painting, "Better Than Diamonds", received a 3rd. Place Ribbon in the Pastel/Drawing category.  The show theme is "Images of Life", and is currently showing at the New Braunfels Art Gallery, New Braunfels, Texas, until August 31, 2016.

We had a wonderful reception on Aug. 5th, and there are some great paintings on display.  If you are in the area, be sure to go by and see what talented artists we have.  I am truly honored to have received this award!

For the whole story behind the painting, read my post dated April 16, 2016.
