So happy to be called off the wait list for this, my favorite art
festival! So far I will be in booth #941 in Birch, unless they can give
me a shadier spot.
I'll have my newest large longhorn painting and lots of other fresh
works!
Come on by, browse and shop the world-class art, enjoy the eclectic
music and food, and spend an enjoyable weekend in Houston!

So you want to sell your art?

But you don't know how much to ask?
I recently had a question from another artist who wanted my opinion on
what price she should put on a particular painting. It took me a few
days to get back to her because I didn't have any ready answer to her
question. The short answer is, "It depends."
The long answer is complicated, and might not tell you what you want to
hear. Read more about it on my Art Journal Blog...

"Petunias in a Glass" (oil, 8.5 x 5.5)
My first oil painting in 3 years! Thanks to Stephanie Birdsall
, our workshop instructor this past
weekend for the Austin Pastel Society. She works and teaches in oil as
well as pastel, and a few of us decided we wanted to do oils.
