Doll and Bear show

I'll be an exhibitor at the Hill Country Doll Show & Sale, Saturday February 12th at the Civic Center in Downtown New Braunfels. This is the only show I'll be doing until the holidays. Come on out, it always draws a weird (but harmless) crowd! www.dolldr.com

Happy New Year!

I am so thankful that the holidays are over, we had a wonderful holiday season, even if it was hectic and I seemed to be at the grocery store too much and cooked too much and lots of washing dishes. We are truly blessed! My off-handed goals for this year are to finish up my last tub of bear fur, then onto cloth doll making. I also want to spend more time playing electric guitar, read more music, and writing songs. I have a quilt to finish - the top is done, I have to modify the backing because I bought it years ago & didn't buy enough so that's where I am now. And, continue to paint. We're planning a trip to Southern Colorado and Northern New Mexico in the spring, and the Highland Art Guild Friday morning paint crew is planning a trip to Ruidoso in September. No more doctors this year if we can at all help it! Happy New Year everybody may your year be blessed.

Merry Christmas to all!

I had a record holiday selling season - I've sold nearly 20 bears since the first part of December. A great help was selling 12 bears to 1 customer at a show here in Burnet, the rest were sold on Etsy or Artfire.com. Thanks to everybody, may your holidays be joyful and relaxing. Go to church, remember the reason for the season and be with friends and family.

Happy Thanksgiving!

May the holidays be relaxing and enjoyable for everybody. We're going to overeat at Mom's house and so many folks are coming with food that I'm off the hook this year oh boy!

It's Fall Festival Time in the Texas Hill Country

A great trip!

I had a great trip, we are all good cooks so we ate well, weather was perfect, got to paint a lot. Here's a painting I did of Georgia O'Keeffe's Ghost Ranch. I painted it on a post card that I sent to my Mom.
