April 2025

Dear Subscriber,

Just a quick reminder of The Woodlands Waterway Arts Festival coming up this weekend! And a couple other things to keep on your calendar for a fun spring weekend!

Spring Art Festivals

For an artful experience and a great spring getaway, visit one of these Fine Art Festivals!

April 12-13, The Woodlands Waterway Arts Festival, in The Woodlands, TX.

I'm happy to be once again on the Waterway for this fine festival! I will have a donated piece in the infamous Art Dash Party held at The Woodlands Marriott Waterway Hotel on that Friday. Hope you can come!

May 3-4, Artwalk, in Fayetteville, TX

Centrally located in the heart of rural Texas, convenient in the middle of the triangle that is Dallas, Houston, and Austin/San Antonio, Arts for Rural Texas' annual ArtWalk takes place every first weekend of May on Fayetteville's historic town square. This will be my second time as a displaying artist.

Find me in booth #31.

April 25-27, Red Poppy Festival, Georgetown TX

And then there's the other side of my art business... For a fun time, visit me in Georgetown at the Red Poppy Fest! I think I'll be somewhere on Main Street.
