Week 24 Littleton, Denver and Sydney

Littleton Plein Air event - 3 paintings are for sale at the Art Depot until June 18. Last weekend was the ASLD Summer Art Market - thank you SO MUCH for purchasing & visiting during the hottest weekend ever. I also appreciated the great conversations with old and new artist friends. Saturday night was the Alzheimer's Association Art Auction - I barely had time to race around and get bids in on art and say a fast hello to people I would love to spend more time with, but couldn't.
Tomorrow I'm headed "down under" to Sydney, Australia and can't wait to see my daughter and the beautiful county. I might be the only person in the whole world looking forward to a 14 hour flight. Because I can take endless naps ... and I will.

The two paintings I donated to Alzheimer's Art Auction - very happy to say they raised a lot of money for the Alzheimer's Association. Check out the bags under my eyes ... I felt the need to point them out, they are tremendously large after spending the day in 96 degree heat in a booth.

My booth full of art. Will work on getting unsold stuff uploaded to website later this summer.

The highlight of my weekend - a small child who loved my soft carpet and crawled under the back table for some relaxation. I loved forts as a kid and I was especially jealous that I couldn't crawl under there myself. I really love kids abilities to just do what the feel like with no inhibitions. I also love that my "kid" who is 23 years old hauled all this stuff for me and helped me set up and tear down the booth. Absolutely could not have done it without my wonderful husband and son. XXOO
