Art Shows in August and September 2024

Early August and September, I attended two shows, one in Sun Valley, Idaho and the second one in Boise, Idaho. I really enjoy meeting people and having conversations about their lives and about my paintings. Both were great and filled my bucket totally. I am truly humbled by the awesome responses from so many people. I feel so blessed to be a part of sharing my love for God and His son, Jesus Christ through my paintings. It is the light of Christ that radiates through my work and is my strength in my life.

In Sun Valley we had a micro burst and almost lost our tent and panels. It was kind of scary there for a bit. I am so grateful that my son had just come back to the tent right as it hit. My neighbor, who was a ceramicist lost some of his pieces. Things happen so we can learn and make things better.

These were some of the clouds passing through causing me concern.

I really appreciated having the help of my two sons. One came to Sun Valley and the other to Boise. Doing art shows is more fun with them around. They are truly a blessing and of course stronger then me. :)
