Winner 1st Place Landscape, Honorable Mention
"Lago Vista" won 1st Place in the Henderson County Art Show. It is a view of Lake Michigan at Bell's? Beach in Charlevoix, Michigan We spent a week at the Sequenota Club last summer. Hard to believe summer is here again. We have been really busy this year with travel to Nashville to see kids and to Naples, Florida where we purchased a house in Old Naples. This painting was sold, but there are prints. I also sold my winner from last year "Arboretum Artistry" along with my egret painting, and some small paintings and prints along with several boxes of notecards. I did well considering tornados hit our neighborhood and the Athens area on Friday night and I left Saturday morning with no power at our house not knowing the situation at the Cain Center. Most people were busy with clean up so our show did not do as well as normal. Hope to see people at our future shows, or I have art, cards and prints at my home and at the Burger and Chop House in Athens.
Well, the picture of me and my pastel portrait of "Rebecca" Lost Girl of Sudan inserted in the "wrong" place. So glad she won an honorable mention. There was lots of competition in this catagory. Any, sale of any of my African art will include a donation to the "Dark Exodus Women's Foundation" to help the girls living in the Dallas area. Be sure to read the moving book "Dark Exodus" by Beverly Parkhurst Moss.
