New paintings and shows

I've done about 5 new paintings in a different format for me. Tall skinny rectangles mainly of streams. A bit of a challenge for composition but fun to do. It will be interesting to see them framed up.

Lots of shows coming up this summer because my "Rep" wants to get out and sell the new products (magnets, decals, notecards, glass, etc.) with my images on them. The first one is a gift show in Great Falls on May 7th. Then the Art Walk in Helena on May 20th. We'll be at Signs Now on Last Chance Gulch for that and then the next day May 21st we'll be in Craig for the Caddis Festival.  We'll be set up in front of our friends at Headhunters Flyshop for that. Weather permitting I'll be demonstrating with acrylics on a new fish painting. Maybe we'll see you there.

AWS Show

    The 144th international American Watercolor Society show opens April 5th at the Salmagundi Club in New York City.  Yours truly has a painting (First Light Gathering-check my watercolor gallery) in the show.  This painting gave me signature membership in the AWS. Quite an honor and a privilege to belong to the most prestigious watercolor society in the world.  I can check that off my bucket list now and aim for the next one.
