My purpose today is to share some tips and ideas about hanging art shows outside the home or studio. Planning and preparation are key to an efficient and smooth operation. Recently, I was talking to one of my sisters about hanging art shows. My sister has hung art shows in her home, but not in a gallery type venue. She is getting ready to hang a show of my Father’s artwork in Albuquerque this November. As I started sharing tips, it occurred to me that this might be something to share with others. Yes! Today was a lovely fall day! Sky blue, temperatures mild, calm winds. That means time to go outside and do another “Drawing Talent” piece! Armed with stool, paint tool box, paper, water, sunscreen, hat…etc, OFF I GO! It was late morning on a Sunday. Certainly there will be no one around and I can draw and paint in peace.* Well, no. There we a lot of people at the Downtowne Coffee House! YES! For the first time, one of my paintings is going to California! My painting “Just Sayin’ …V8b” has been accepted into the California Watercolor Association‘s 45th National Exhibition in Pleasanton, CA.Just Sayin’… Series Spin Offs

I’m starting to work on a couple of new series. They are spin offs of the “Just Sayin’…” series. Sort of reminds me of TV series spin offs. 🙂
