The final show of August in Highland Park last weekend was fun and full of excitement. Several paintings found new homes, and we met with friends from all over the country throughout the weekend. We took our time getting home, taking note of how the dry end of summer was showing up in the changing colors of the countryside.
I’m enjoying a bit of house and yardwork for a few days, although a fresh new canvas is now on the easel, poised for the next adventure.
In other news, I spent some time putting together a website for an old friend from art school, Gene Gregorio. If all goes well, he’ll be exhibiting at the upcoming Rittenhouse Square Fine Art Show in a few weeks, his first venture into a major outdoor art festival. I’m sure the whole business seems pretty huge and daunting for him, but I believe he’ll find his footing easily enough. If art school taught us only one thing, it was how to land on our feet no matter what happens. At least that’s what I keep telling myself.
