AIS Show

AIS Show

  Thank you to AIS Pres- Debra Joy Groesser,

the AIS V.P.- Cheryl St. John.

and especially the show chair  Becky Joy

for hosting a fantastic show.

They had arranged a demo by Clayton Beck,

workshops, paint outs, museum tours, 

presentations on materials and marketing

and a great opening.

There were so many wonderful paintings there

that I couldn't even pick a favorite to vote for in the

peoples choice award.

 I met so many

artists and hopefully made some new friends along the way.

My experience couldn't have been any better.

Plus red dots are always exciting!

Burgundy Friends

 

Burgundy Friends 6x6 oil on board

 

These are the famous Charolais cows that surround

my country french house in Burgundy.

Some of the other specialities of the region

include snails, mushrooms, and of course the famous

Burgundy wines.

And did I forget to mention cheese?

Our house is just ten minutes from the  historic

Rues des Grands Crus

with hundreds of vintners, a delightful gastronomic adventure!

 

What was I talking about? Oh yeah, cows.  They are always so

cute and curoius. They just look at you with their big brown

eyes and sweet expressions, chewing and chewing,

constantly chewing when they're not mooing that is.
