spring spotlight
west end gallery

Anybody excited that it's finally Spring??

In the drab days this winter, I knew I needed cheering up, so it wasn't long until I stumbled on my theme:  Hope. 

Each of the Spotlight paintings pairs early, early flowers with our earliest spring birds. I turned to my go-to mediums: watercolor with acrylic painted on gessoed watercolor paper.  And I took on the challenge of painting deeper compositions to push my skills.  Painting for hours was just perfect for these past few months!!

The show runs from April 7 through May 4.

palettes of keuka

The Seventeenth Annual Palettes of Keuka will be on view during the summer of 2023.  I am honored to be invited to paint my seventh palette for this wonderful fundraiser! 

These panels are two and a half feet by three and a half feet cut in the shape of an artist's palette and pose a real compositional challenge.  I am glad that Great Blue Herons are such a versatile subject!

Approximately 30 palettes will be unveiled on July 1, then displayed at Hammondsport area businesses throughout the summer.  Find them all (and jot down the "secret" letter on the back) and you could win a prize from the Hammondsport Chamber of Commerce.  The season wraps up with a public auction of the palettes on Labor Day weekend.
