Thank you to everyone who stopped out for the Studio Tour this past weekend! It’s always great to see you and I appreciate the support.
If you weren’t able to stop by, and would like to visit, I’d be happy for you to do that. Please call or email to schedule a time.
The 2022 Garrett County Artist Studio Tour is a week from today – the weekend of July 23 and 24th.
Visit me at my studio, open from 11 am to 5 pm on both days. Click here to see a complete list of artists and locations. The tour book uses handy QR codes to help you navigate from stop to stop.
Please stop by to see new art and say hello. I look forward to seeing you!
If you’re unable to make next weekend’s event, but would like to check out the new art, I’d be happy to set up another viewing time for you. You can contact me here.
Below is my profile page in the tour book, along with the QR code. Thank you to curlyred for designing the brochure for The Council.
I’ve been a member of the Deep Creek Lake Yacht Club at Turkey Neck for a long time. Twenty-one years ago, a group of members gathered up items and stored them away in a time capsule to open in 2020. After the pandemic delayed the opening by a year, the Club finally cracked it open in August. Much to my surprise, a small piece of my art was inside the capsule. Below is a display they made with some of the items, where you’ll see the small work of art alongside a closer look at the image.
If you’ve talked to me about my work or have asked me to paint a specific scene, you might know that I do not work fast when painting from photographs or particular ideas that are not my own. The Queen Bee has been wanting me to paint a photo that she took at sunset for a few summers now. I finally got around to it here in this 48″x24″ work on canvas, Sunset View.
Thank you to everyone who stopped out during the Garrett County Arts Council Artist Studio Tour! It was great to open the studio up again to the public. Whether you came to browse or purchase art, it was great to see you all.
We sold work that hadn’t even made it to the website yet, which is always a good thing. Below is By the Mark, which found its way to a new home.
