Ozark Foothills FilmFest Branding Image

Each year, the Ozark Foothills FilmFest holds a statewide competition to find an image for its festival poster, program cover, and website.  One of my watercolor paintings, Summer on the Farm,  has been chosen as the branding image for the 10th annual FilmFest, set for March 23 -27 in Batesville.  I will have an exhibit of many of my paintings at the Batesville Area Art Gallery March 8 through 25, and will do a painting demo at the gallery on Friday, March 11, from 6 to 8 pm.  If you can, please stop by on March 11 to say hello and enjoy my demo.  If not, try to take in my exhibit sometime during March.

Leaving Port - Original Watercolor Painting


I can't seem to get away from painting boats lately.  This painting was somewhat of an experiment.  The sails were done by squeezing the color out with a credit card, and the water was also given the "credit card treatment".

Juried Into 2011 MSW Annual Exhibit


I received some good news this week.  One of the paintings I entered into the 2011 Mid-Southern Watercolorists Annual Exhibit was juried in by juror Mark Mehaffey.  It was my half-sheet painting of the Arlington Hotel.  This is the fifth time I've been juried into this Exhibit.
