It Pays to Follow That Inner Spirit

When I finished "A Texas Lunch" (previous post), there was an upcoming show at New Braunfels Art Gallery in New Braunfels, Texas, and I had decided not to enter it. However, upon framing it (with the help of my niece, Brooke), I got that inner spirit voice saying "enter it". I usually follow it--so decided to. So glad I did!!

The reception for the show "Art in Bloom" was this past Friday, May 6th.. It is a beautiful show and will run until May 28th.. I am so happy to share that I received 3rd. Place, Drawing/Pastel category!!
