Here it is approaching late Feb. and man, am I busy! I am working like mad to participate in almost all of the art opportunities that come my way, while creating enough art for each of them! It can be quite a balancing act to do this.
My first event is the San Diego Birding Festival, where I will be a vendor. It begins on Feb. 28th and runs through March 3rd, 2013.
I have been painting like crazy trying to get a body of work that is pertinent for the festival, as well as making as many minis as possible.
If you are in the area, come see me at my booth!
In addition to preparing for the festival, I have been asked to show my work at the Bernalillo County Commissioners Office in downtown ABQ beginning in mid March - May.
It is quite an honor to have been asked to do this and I am very excited about it. I love that you can find people who support the arts in all areas of our fair city, ABQ, NM.
My work has been hanging at a Radiology/Oncology Center for the past month and a half, and will have to take that work down to show at the commissioner's office. (more juggling of the art) During the month of April I will be participating in a show hanging at the Old Schoolhouse Gallery in Cedar Crest, NM. (closer to my neck of the woods). The theme for that show will be "Birds" so this will be appropriate for my work.
On top of all of this, I have applied for three different art shows, of various types, locations and sizes. I haven't yet heard back if I will be attending any of them, but will post it here if I do.
Meanwhile, I am still working on a t-shirt design for the NM Ornithological Society.
I have also committed to creating a new logo for the Central New Mexico Audubon Society.
I was recently contacted by the Tucson Audubon regarding a Bird A Thon t-shirt design they need for 2013. I have provided them with the image they loved, a flying raven.
So as soon as I return to NM from CA I will be busy working. I love staying busy! My yurt is ready to be set up with electric and heat and when it is, I will have a larger more user friendly space to create in. I am really looking forward to that! But if nothing else, I have learned that I can create in any space.
Another project that I will be starting soon, is the Mono Lake Chautauqua Birding Festival t-shirt design for 2013. Wezil and I plan to attend the festival in mid June to participate as vendor/bird guide. That will be a lot of fun.
So I am keeping real busy. Stay posted for next month's blog regarding my projects and shows. Please email me with any questions or comments.
Thanks for looking and here's to the end of winter! ;)
