I had a successful and fun first Open Studio's!  Lots of interested and interesting people...a great response to my work....and a lot of fun!!  I thank everyone who participated....from artist's to volunteer's, supporter's, family, friends, appreciator's and client's.  So grateful!!! With everything I have learned and a year of painting ahead of me....all things going well....I look forward to next year.....and in the meantime plan on continuing my quest to grow in all arenas.....and paint as much as I can.  Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!  I started a new painting today and it was great to be back at it!  Life....you have to love it!!

I've completed my first weekend of Marin Open Studios and moving into the second.  It was so much better than my modest expectations I'm a very happy human.  We had a great turnout, interesting and interested people, and the sales were good too.  I had made a grouping of greeting cards of my work, and for Richard, too, and they were a big hit as well.  The weather was perfect...after a run of some very hot and uncomfortable days.  This weekend should prove interesting too, and I'm looking forward to it....but the best will be when I can get back to painting.  Missing that right now.  You can visit my online gallery for MOS at this link www.marinopenstudios.org.
