Billye, Melanie, and I worked with oils, watercolor, and pastels while
Danette gardened! Vicky and Lisa came by to take photos for future

Winter On The Trace
New painting, "Winter On The Trace."
Take some time this evening to stop by the Municipal Art Gallery at 839 North State Street in Jackson, Mississippi. Sip a little wine, have a few hors d'oeuvres and look at some beautiful art. The occasion is the Mississippi Artists Guild member show. My painting, "Winter on the Trace" is only one of many paintings there for your viewing pleasure! The show will hang for all of March at the Jackson Municipal Art Gallery. It is closed on Mondays but open 9am - 5pm Tuesday - Saturday and 2pm - 5pm on Sundays.

Indian Bayou Festival
Took some pictures at the Indian Bayou Arts Festival, so here's a painting of some artisans selling their craft. The festival takes place in September across from the B.B. King
Museum and The Blue Biscuit along the
banks of Indian Bayou in Downtown
Indianola, Mississippi. The man in the red shirt is Lee Washington. He was selling his "Cotton Picking" metal sculptures, three of said pieces grace my home!
I was also a demonstration artist with the Delta Artists Association booth for those who passed by, had questions, and wanted to see an artist in action. I'm working on the painting posted here.

Monthly Paint Day
The
Delta Artists Association had a great activity going on during the
monthly Paint Day. Kathy Smith and Ann Laird Jones led a mini-workshop in painting on clay with
under-glazes! For artists who paint but don't necessarily work with clay,
it gave us some laid-back, no-pressure exposure to a different medium.
It was great fun!
