Jumping June-Art Festivals, Classes & a Throwback!

June is a busy month! I have two art shows right in a row-First the Manito Park Art Festival on Saturday June 10th and then Bazaar in downtown Spokane on Main on the 17th. I’ll be bringing my puzzles and several new paintings and I’d love to see you!

This is the view of the Pavilion as seen with my back to the Pavilion Art Space. My art is on display at the Pavilion Art Space until August. Right now there are two framed paintings and 3 framed sketchbooks (unusual for me!). I’m hoping to add sketches from my students once my Riverfront Park sketch crawl classes start happening. I really enjoyed having my sketchbooks up on the wall. I’d like to do an exhibit of my sketchbooks someday. Is that something you guys would be interested in?

I have painted the Rockwood Boulevard Towers before, but someone asked me to do a winter version as well so here it is-just in time for the Manito Art Festival!

I’ve taught at the Corbin Art Center for 10 years which I was shocked to realize recently. It is also the 125th anniversary of the Corbin House’s construction-so I guess, the house is probably even more shocked about how fast the time has gone than I am! Have you ever taken a class at Corbin?

This painting is at Craftsman Cellars for the Little Spokane River Artist Studio Tour Preview Show this month if you want a peek at what the artists will be at LSRAST this September.

Now for a fun throwback! My mom sent me this photo recently-its me in our hotel room in Hawaii. I think I’m around 12-13.

This is me in 2017 sketching in the UK, photo also taken by my mom. Clearly not much has changed! I still love to travel and to make art!

One last thing!

I’ve got sketchcrawl classes at Riverfront Park and Manito Park coming up in July and August. If you’d like to sign up for one of them here’s the link to my shop!

I was also thinking it’d be nice to do a sketching class in June. Email me back if you’re interested and let me know if weekday or weekend would be better and I’ll bang together a class sign up link to send out. We’d be aiming for either morning or evening so we don’t fry in the heat!

Hope to see you soon!
