Winning with the Palouse

I have two recent "wins" to report. First, thanks to the votes from so many fans in e-mail, as well as visitors to the Peterson-Cody Gallery in Santa Fe, I won the People's Choice Award for the Fresh Paint show (see previous blog post). Thank you for taking time to vote! I was thrilled to sell "Chase Road" shortly after the show opened. I had a great time in Santa Fe

Just last week my painting "Humps and Hollows" was honored with a first place prize at the Women Painters of Washington Spring Members Show. I was especially honored, as the juror for this show was Master Artist Juliette Aristedes, director of the Classical Atelier at Gage Academy, and author of two books: Classical Painting Atelier and Classical Drawing Atelier, both published by Watson-Guptil.


You will get to see many more paintings of the Palouse in my upcoming solo show at the Fountainhead Gallery on Queen Anne in Seattle during the month of May. Details forthcoming.
