Hello September ...


ahh September, how I love the "ber" months!
I just realized that the last time I did a post here was in July!
August was absolutely jam packed with things to do. . . 
Here's a little August catch-up of some art stuff.

Art Walk 2024 was absolutely amazing.
We had fabulous weather; our tent was tucked under a beautiful tree which provided shade to us from the moment we arrived at 7:30 am until we began packing up at 4.  Tent set up went better and quicker than planned which was good. There were live musical performances throughout the day, we met so many lovely people who were interested in hearing about my art journey and shared their own.
Looking forward to next year!!
 
All through the month of August I had been varnishing, wiring, choosing frames for, creating labels, and documenting the pieces of art I was going to hang for my 
*first* SOLO ART EXHIBIT 

We hung 60 pieces of art at the end of August in preparation for my September Art Show.
It was very humbling to see my art hanging on the art gallery walls of St. James 
So very grateful for this wonderful opportunity.
So many thank you's . . . 
Thank you to Christine for spotting my art at Innovation Park and the invitation to exhibit at St. James.
Thank you to Frank for the lovely artist of the month webpage.
Thank you to my hubby for all his help and support and hanging the 60 pieces!
Thank you to my wonderful family - my love for you is woven into every painting.
And last but not least, thank you to everyone who reached out and left such lovely words of friendship and kindness.
All so very much appreciated.

Wow Deb - to think you had 60 pieces to show is absolutely fabulous. Congratulations on being chosen to have them hung in such a lovely Church. I too love those "ber" months. Time to get cozy and sip some warm cider and paint and read a good book. Take care and have a wonderful start to September.
