2026 Vendor Events, June through October

My display from the Spaghetti Dinner in May.

It’s going to be a busy summer! The photo above is from the HCMT Spaghetti Dinner in May this year, but it has a lot of the things I’ll have all summer. And of course it will be in my tent for most of these 2026 events! I rearranged my display at the beginning of […]

Holiday Greetings from My Backyard Birds

I truly love winter paintings because the light is wonderful without the shadows from trees, the reflections from the snow illuminating shadowed areas with soft purples and blues, and the patterns made by bare branches are mesmerizing. This set of four paintings of backyard birds are ones I’d done “from life”, actually standing at a […]

Paintings of Winter Beauty in a Set of Holiday Cards

Winter is my favorite season for painting. These paintings were inspired by winter in pastel, watercolor and pen and ink from the trails to my backyard, completed en plein air and indoors—often standing on my deck or sitting in the front seat of the car—illuminated by the stark light of winter. Many of them were […]

First Carnegie Farmers Market a Wrap

Carnegie Farmers Market tent display, right.

Well, the first Carnegie Farmers Market of the season is a wrap–a very hot wrap at 94 degrees on Main Street in full sun on the pavement! Thank goodness my tent canopy has a “silver lining” that reflects a lot of the heat so the shade is actually cooler. The 5-10mph breeze was very welcome […]

Compositions in Black and Green Greeting Cards

It’s winter sunlight and he’s doing this again. This very photo from 2011 was the inspiration for this set of greeting cards, Compositions in Black and Green, and gave me a focus for the whole series of images which I also published as a calendar in 2013 and 2014. Who knew a bathroom renovation could […]
