2023 In Review - A great year for Art!
This year I am grateful for so many things, including having the time and drive to paint. I have had a busy year, personally. Professionally, I have increased my paint time, painting virtually every day in my studio. Here’s some other things I am proud of from this year:
I finished up my year as Artist in Residence at The North Carolina Theatre
Had pieces for sale at NOFO and also had a small show in their restaurant
Painted almost daily
Painted more en plein air
Painted in Paint in Orange plein air competition (and completed the event!)
I won a Sponsor’s Choice Award and sold a painting at Paint it Orange
I taught private lessons in my studio
Showed at my galleries, the NC Museum of Art Shop, Elk Local Foods and NOFO
Participated in the group show, Loose Ends, at Clayton Center with my art friends
Participated in my 8th Boylan Heights Artwalk! It was a fantastic show. I sold three original paintings and loved my location on the lawn of the Heights House Hotel.
I have a lot of goals for the next year! I plan to become more experimental in my work and to work more en plein air (more on that in another post!) I hope that you will follow my work and let me know what you are responding to the most!
