"Serendipity" Exhibit Reception Saturday, July 20, 1-4pm

"Two Tents" from the Mountain Maryland Quick Draw is one of 26 oils in "Serendipity"
You're Invited...

My sort of funny looking French macarons are being packed up. Other refreshments getting ready. I've been elbows-deep in icing and batter. Our kitchen looks like a bunch of gorillas came in and had a wild party. (Can't imagine that they'd have any other kind.)

I never did get the French macarons down. But they did keep getting better and better.  So many similarities to learning anything new (i.e. painting). Even though they weren't quite right -- it felt good to sandwich the two cookies together. They looked cute in my little assembly line.

So ... the facts:
Reception: Saturday, July 20, 1-4pm at the Great Falls Library, 9830 Georgetown Pike, Great Falls, VA.

The exhibit of 26 original oils continues through August 31.

I'll be giving a Painting Demonstration in August -- same place -- painting ballerinas.  That's scheduled for Saturday, August 10, 1-4pm. RSVP -- yeses only -- to that event through my web site.

Thanks! And maybe I'll see you tomorrow (Saturday).
