Bicentennial Parking Lot

Asheboro, NC

The Randolph Arts Guild is excited to once again be partnering with the City of Asheboro and Habitat for Humanity to put together ART MAY-HAM.  This juried Arts and Crafts show features the work of 30+ artists and artisans, BBQ, music, and much, much, more. 

What a show!

I had a wonderful time at the Lark Artists Handmade Holiday art show today!  Everyone who attended, whether artist or patron, contributed to the flow of good will and positive energy that started at 6:00 a.m. and did not stop even after the doors closed at 5:00 p.m.  It was so nice to welcome new and old friends in such an excellent venue, and the icing on the cake was selling a few paintings! Thank you to everyone who came and supported this show - we look forward to seeing you next year!

Hickory Mountain Weavery

I had a wonderful weekend at Hickory Mountain Weavery's 1st annual show and sale.  The venue was fantastic - the cabins were quaint and cozy, yet super functional.  The ambiance was magical.

This cabin was originally the Pluck, NC, post office dating from the late 1880's. It now houses the studio/classroom of artist Emily Thompson,who was kind enough to share her domain with me for this event.  She teaches children's art here and made a wonderful display of her students' work on the porch in addition to hanging her own pastel, watercolor, and pen & ink works inside.

It was such fun figuring out creative ways to display my works.  I utilized a lot of thrift store finds and was really pleased with how it turned out.

The stone fireplace and log walls created a lovely backdrop for framed pieces:

It was a great two days with lots of visitors and long, artsy chats.  I can't wait for the next event here!

Tiny Treasures

Lots of lovely teeny-weeny flowers in my yard - got my pics before hubby mows them all away.

I'm a Genius!

I've been racking my brain's little-used left side to pull my blog and Etsy into my Facebook page and connect Etsy and NetworkedBlogs with my blog, and I've finally done it (I think)! 

If you've got a minute to wander around, browse the connections. Let me know if  you need help getting out of the maze.

My good friend Marion and I are having a six-week show in Ramseur, NC, starting March 10. If you're nearby, come by!
