It's not only time to buy sweets for the little ones, it's fall fix-up time! (Can you tell I watch HGTV?) You have guests for the holidays and parties coming up, you need something new in just the right size and color to liven up that room! This Friday, Oct 22, I will be doing a painting demonstration along with several other regional artists at Artistic Gifts & Framing, Dalton, GA. Donna Hilley, the owner, has lined up an outside street fair of sorts. We will be taking small works on canvas and paper, most unframed, for your gift list! I know when I rearrange things at home, I change out paintings and photos and a few throw pillows for a seasonal look. I am taking some of my little "jewels". Donna has lots of wonderful mouldings that would look great on any artwork you choose. If you don't see something that completely grabs you, commission a piece for that special place or someone. I am back from a wonderful week in Tuscany and really inspired to paint now! Hope to see you Friday!

Ciao, ya'll!

Packing up for the Tuscany Workshop week. My bag may be overweight this time. I am carrying my pochade box, tripod, paints, and panels with a week's worth of clothes. Whew! Looking forward to the rolling hills covered with vineyards. We may have rain one day, so already thinking about interiors at the monastery and views out the windows. Don't know if I will be able to post from there or not, but do know that I will be painting, painting, painting! Hope all ya'll have a great week coming up too.

Ciao, ya'll!
