Here's a snapshot of a couple of them. The best -- so far -- came yesterday and today. That's uphill. Good thing.
"Cactus Corner" is the painting I was just toning my canvas for when the news reporter pulled up. Great guy! Nice questions. Poised even when slightly rattled painter. At least sort of.
Everyone here is beyond gracious. Welcoming. Celebratory. Beautiful.
And, the weather's been perfect.
More to come... but with some delays inbetween. We've had full days with breakfasts, lunches, dinners, lots of visitors and a one-hour time difference.
Oh, and I left behind my SLR camera before heading to San Angelo. With a history of selling LOTS of artwork here -- hopefully -- many of my pieces will go away without proper documentation -- as in, poorly photographed. That'd be okay.
Thanks for reading!
