"Harvest of Art"

Here are my two paintings (on the bottom) in the art show.

Funny thing is, the painting above was what I loved to paint when I lived up north.  All I loved to paint were old barns.  Now living in Florida since 1985, all I want to paint are palm trees and seascapes....although I do paint other things.  

This is my friend Wanda Carter.  She won a special portraiture award for this portrait she did.  Her work in pastel is amazing.  Well deserved for a talented, nice lady!

This is the brochure for Harvest of Art.  

The Harvest of Art is Charlotte County's oldest and most prestigious annual juried exhibit...and I got juried into it!  

If you look close you can see I'm number 9 & 10.  I was located in the main hallway. 

This has inspired me to keep going!  

By the way...the painting below titled "Halogen"?  

Halogen didn't make it into the juried show, so I decided to post it on "Daily Paintworks" where I have my artwork online to sell.  That website chose it for their "Pick of the day", proving one man's trash is another man's treasure.  

And that is why I don't let judges get to me personally, it just proves everyone has their own taste!  

What a great week!
