Walking Stick
6" x 6" oil on canvas panel
Painting #40
$100.00

I was thrilled seeing these amazing insects for the first time in Texas near the Gulf. In Texas, everything is big including walking sticks at 6"-8" long! Walking sticks can blend into their surroundings making them very difficult to see. Nature in camouflage was my favorite page in the encyclopedia as a child.

50/50 Show at the Sanchez Art Center















Last Friday many artists of the 50/50 Show got together to share our pieces, and discuss the process of making 50 pieces in 50 days. It was great to see the variety of work and hear about the spirit behind each artist's inspiration. This show is a great fundraiser for the the Sanchez Art Center that offers classes, exhibitions and studio space, so buying work at this show is really a win/win event and the work is offered at very affordable prices.

Please come to Pacifica for the
Preview (a ticket event) or the Grand Opening for first choice on art. Buyers are allowed to take the work home as soon as they purchase it, so be there early for first dibs!
