A few good reasons to come to Edmonds this weekend!

Here is another sneak peek at new artwork I am showing in Edmonds, Washington, through the weekend of July 17th and 18th. "Maman" (encaustic with mixed media) is making her first appearance in public at ArtSplash, and "The Rodent Speaks" is speaking his point of view on things at the Fabric of Life Boutique. (see my sidebar for links to show hours and addresses).

There are also a few FUN events going on around town, like the free bluegrass concert happening on Sunday in Edmonds City Part at 3:00 p.m. Edmonds in Bloom, a gorgeous garden tour, is also taking place on Sunday from 11-4. And, there are always the beautiful beaches to visit!

Two shows in Edmonds, Washington

I am currently preparing for two shows that are opening next week in Edmonds, Washington. I will be showing new encaustic paintings and assemblage at ArtSplash. And right up the street, I will be showing mixed media and encaustic collage and assemblage work at Foundation of Life Boutique. (see sidebar for show info.) I do apologize for not keeping up with posts to this blog! I do promise more to come soon...After the two shows are hung, I will relish reading your blogs and catching up with you all!

A "sneek" peek at the Ladies...

This is one of the new pieces I will be showing at ArtSplash, opening July 15, in downtown Edmonds, Washington. You have GOT to see this one in person, the photo doesn't quite do it justice! This is based on an old drawing from college that I did many years ago, and I have carved the figures into encaustic wax. I've added ink, graphite, sand and glass micro-beads. See the sidebar to the right for more information on this fabulous upcoming show...

More beauty from Maui...

This is what keeps this artist 'ticking'...

I'm back!

New and exciting posts coming SOON! Thanks for your patience! I just recently returned from tropical Maui breezes, and had to plunge right in to the massive Artists Garage Sale, which took place in Everett, Washington this last weekend. It was a HUGE success, and "Thanks" to everyone who attended and stopped by my booth. A gorgeous 70 degree day, with full sunshine--which is rare in June in Washington!!
