Artisans' Road Trip (A.R.T.)

Dreaming, 11 x 17 watercolor, Taho, 2013

​I am showing a few acrylic and watercolor pieces on this year's annual Artisans' Road Trip show.  There are 41 artists showing work around the Iowa Great Lakes area and I am excited to be one of them.  My show is at the Fieldstone RV park in the campground's community building.  We keep our camper here year round so all I had to do was set up my work and put out the "Stop Here" signs.

One of my pieces, this watercolor painting, has been used for a few of the group's advertising media.  It's fun when guests come in and recognize it right away.  "Oh, there it is."  or "Oh, I didn't realize there was a face in it... no, there are two faces."

Other than the reward of having gone through the process of getting ready for this show and then following through with it, I have made some wonderful contacts this weekend.  Two different gallery owners have invited me to show my work in their galleries.  Boy, now I truly have some work laid out in front of me.
