I am thrilled to be able to tell you that I was in a show at Hanson Galleries in Uptown Park during October 2008. This venue was on my wish list of places that I aspire to show my work in. Through the Houston Metal Arts Guild I was invited to submit 5 pieces for the show "Language of Color". All 5 pieces were accepted and were showing in the gallery. I'm sorry to say nothing was sold, but I am still very happy to have been included. The show had some trouble getting started due to delays from Hurricane Ike, but eventually found it's mark and was up and running. My future plans are to approach this venue as a permanent display for my work.
Here is a link to the show on their website: Hanson Galleries

I recently was a vendor at the Amazing Grace Fine Art Sale at the Houston Christian High School on October 25. It was a fun show and I got to see many of my fellow artist friends. There was a tiny snaffu with me not having the correct number of tables reserved. This was actually laughable after I had spent hours laying it out at home to make sure I knew just what I wanted to do for that just right look. So much for planning ahead, in the first 5 minutes I had to scratch everything I had planned. The sponsors accommodated me with a small extra table and It all worked itself out.
The art displayed at this show is fantastic and really top notch. You can see fine art, wood turning, jewelry, sculpture, and pottery. The children from the school performed, sang and danced or us during the event. They also displayed some of their own art work. It was well attended and my sales were up from last year. Earrings were my best seller this year. There is nothing better than having wonderful sponsors who take very good care of us vendors. We all know it is a lot of work and effort to put one of the these shows on and it's good to see the work being appreciated. I definitely will do the show again.
