Hi Everyone, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We eat lots of turkey, pumpkin pie, and pecan pie. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and one I hope you all enjoy. OK now on to business. I’ll be at the NMAI in New York this weekend for their annual holiday art market. come by and say hi. It’s free to get in, and there are always wonderful artists in attendance. It’s at One Bowling Green in Manhattan, and quite an interesting building as well and being a good show. I hope to see you there.

Gray’s Papaya here we come.

I can understand why California is the most populous state. Warm weather and sunshine are good for the soul. The Autry show was a lot of fun I made some great contacts (and wonderful trades). I had a few interesting things happen when I was there.
It seems the world is getting smaller and smaller all the time. A young man approached my booth with a big grin, he looked at one of my serigraphs (Kindred Spirits) and excitedly told me that he had it in his home. His family had visited the Steinbrueck Gallery in Seattle, they had seen the piece as soon as they walked in and had to get it. I can’t describe what it feels like to hear stories like that. I know that the work has reached many corners of the world, but to actually meet someone who has purchased work from a third party thousands of miles away is pretty amazing. Thanks for that. Also thanks for adding to your collection. I truly appreciate everyone who stops by to chat and those who support the art by purchasing pieces thank you so much, it makes a big difference and makes it possible for me to travel and share the work with a wider audience.
I love California and hope to return sometime soon to enjoy the sun, and fresh produce. If you know of any shows in the area feel free to contact me, I’d be interested. Take Care Everyone, hope you have a wonderful day.
