These vertical paintings have been popular this summer.
Luckily I absolutely LOVE to paint them!
Everyone has a space for a coat rack….yep.
I was a very surprised recipient of a little award during the Eagan Art Festival a couple weeks ago.
What an honor. This is a beautiful Art fair. The staff and volunteers were AMAZING.
I even got a gold star. This was a very good day!
My family and friends were there to support me and to top it off…it was my birthday!
Please come and say hi while I’m in Stockholm Wisc on Saturday, July 21st.
It’s my first year at this art fair. I’ve heard it’s a lot of fun!
You can’t beat the beautiful drive… and art…and food…and music….and sunshine…and laughter…

This will be a great art fair season. I can just feel it!
My car was very organized for my first art fair this year. That’s new for me!
We had the most beautiful day at St. Anthony park in St. Paul last weekend.
The weather was PERFECT. Smiles were everywhere. I sold a bunch of stuff and made some new friends. I love my job.
This is what my tent looked like in the morning.
Most of the paintings went to new homes. This makes me so happy!
If you are visiting my website for the first time and are looking for samples of my work, please click on past blog posts….and keep checking in!
ABODE gallery just said a nice little blurb about my paintings…awe.

Yep. Mother’s day is right around the corner. You know a lot of mothers. Why not give someone you love the gift of color? I just brought new paintings to the Northfield Arts Guild just for YOU!
Next on my deliveries…ABODE gallery in Stolkholm Wisconsin. I have a few paintings there now…and will be bringing some new goodies tomorrow! I’ll snap some pictures and post them asap. Enjoy the day!
This spring I have been enjoying the boxes of
wonderful wood pieces (scraps to some people, treasures to me)
that were dropped off in my studio by my artist friend, Lars.
(He does beautiful wood work. Please visit his website).
After a little cutting, sanding, drilling, painting, and poly,
they became a fun little addition to my collection of items for sale.
In a few days, some of them will be traveling to local shops/galleries.
The rest will be carefully placed on a shelf in preparation for the
crazy art fair season that is RIGHT around the corner. Yikes!
Tiny paintings range in size from 1×1″ to 5×5″ and prices start at $15. They can sit on their own or hang on the wall. How fun is that?
These charms are fun for all ages…$20
This painting would be perfect for a Mother’s day gift! It is 24″ in diameter. It has a lazy susan attached to the back. I hang mine on the wall…and use it on the counter when needed. Custom orders are encouraged….you still have time!
Now go outside and play.

I’m one of the few people who loves MONDAY mornings. Annoying isn’t it? (Not nearly as annoying as the fact that my computer doesn’t type the letter “g” without extreme force!) I’m busy preparing for Sogn Valley Craft Fair. It’s happening THIS weekend. I’m excited to see old friends and hopefully make some new ones. It’s such a lovely event that I”m not even worried about sales. It will be a highlight to my summer/fall no matter what happens.
Here is proof that I”ve actually been painting…These pieces are 3 feet long and a few inches wide. They sell fast…I think it’s because of the unique size. We all have a spot for one of these…right?

Easily distracted would be a description that fits my mood today. While filing through pictures for my weekly blog post…I came upon this one. I enjoy doing mosaics SO much. This was my first mosaic ever. I installed it in a previous life in a previous home. I would like to do another one…today…but painting is my focus for the next few months. Focus. Focus. Focus.
Currently I am preparing for Sogn Valley Art Fair. This is a beautiful event. Be prepared to slow down and relax when you arrive. Great food, talented musicians, unique people and wonderful hand crafted art. You don’t want to miss this one! I’m honored to be invited to this show.
Ok. I”m gonna walk away from the distractions now…and get busy….unless I decide to take a little break and attend the Lakeville Art Festival today. I don’t think I can resist THAT distraction. Maybe I’ll see you there?
