I hope your year has started off in a fulfilling and happy way! Mine certainly has, and my commitment to College Avenue Church in Lenoir as interim pastor along with my art means my plate runneth over!
A bit of news-well, two bits really. First, I will be Artist in Residence at Blowing Rock's Edgewood Cottage this summer during the week of July 3-9. It's Fourth of July week, and I hope you will mark your calendar and come see my paintings at the cottage. The other bit of news is that the magazine Carolina Mountain Living will have an article on me doing plein air paintings at Bass Lake here in Blowing Rock. It will be in the spring issue; do pick up one in April.
And that leads me to the request. Many of you have seen me painting at Bass Lake or elsewhere here in the High Country, and stopped to chat or even purchase a painting. If you have a photo of me painting and talking with you or others-and don't mind having it published in a magazine-please email a copy to me. We need a summertime photo of me working at the lake. And happy Valentine's Day!
