Newest Paintings


I just got back from taking my entries to the Summerfest contest. We had two days to get done what we could. I cannot believe the awesome work that was there. It will be judged today, awards tonight. Mine is certainly not the best, but not the worst, either. The paintings will then be displayed at the Tabernacle Park until Saturday. This is the first time I dared to put a price on mine, I didn't want to be the only one without it. If you want to see some wonderful paintings, it will be worth the drive to Logan to see them. ( Not mine, the other ones, that sounded bad, didn't it?) Anyway, I learn more each time I do one of these, and just seeing the other artists work is worth it to me. There are so many styles and ideas out there. It is refreshing to see how others put it to canvas.

The other painting, of the Fort and Trees was my entry for the Ogden Art Festival. It didn't get anything, but I tried new things on it that I hadn't tried before. I would do it differently if I had the chance. It was fun, but rainy there, too. I am just glad that I had the opportunity to try and that I have the ability to go out and paint. I wouldn't get to without help from the family and Curtis. The photo's aren't too good, but it's the best I could get.
