Grapevine New Vintage Wine and Art Trail

I'm resting today...I must sound like a wimp, but yesterday I was on my feet during the New Vintage Wine and Art Trail exhibit. Oh, but it was a great success and so much fun!! Although the day started a little gloomy, it was a warm day. Sorry Saundra but as you can see from the photo - I'm already in sleeveless dress and sandals...(Saundra mentioned in her comment that she woke up to snow.)

I was really happy that so many fellow artists and friends stopped by to say "hi". Their support sparks my enthusiasm and inspiration.


Here's a photo of an artist friend, Randy Saffle who stopped by to say to "Hi" me and Barbara Woods, my painting buddy who also exhibited.

Grapevine Main Street Art Gallery

Recently I joined the Grapevine Main Street Gallery in Grapevine, Texas. Yesterday the artists in residence set up our easels outside and painted. The weather was perfect! 60 degrees, lots of sunshine and no wind! Here are a few photos of the artists at work:

House with the Blue Roof

A little practice painting. Doing what I love - painting with the palette knife. Several years ago I was lucky enough to meet Francois Arenas during one of Gravepine city's Gallery Night event. I loved his style of painting and was thrilled that he was giving lessons. I hadn't been using the palette knife as often lately and felt a little rusty.

New Vintage Wine and Gallery Trail

Here are some photos from the New Vintage Wine and Gallery Trail Art Exhibit from just this past Saturday.

I'm setting up my exhbit in this photo.

And this is my painting pal, Nancy Medina.

Baccus, the God of Wine and Adriana were among some of the visitors to the exhibit.

Grapevine, Texas

If you're familiar with Grapevine, Texas and have driven on Dove Road, maybe you've seen Yates Corner Groc. on the intersection of Kimball. It is such a familiar sight that I've been meaning to paint it. The best time to capture it is during the morning hours as the grocery faces East.

I thought a local landmark might be nice for the New Vintage Wine Trail and Gallery Show I will be in this Saturday, April 19th in the Lancaster Theater in Grapevine, Texas.

Grapevine Lancaster Gallery Art Show

I'll be at the New Vintage Wine and Gallery Trail - Lancaster Gallery Art Show on April 19th, Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm, Grapevine, Texas. If you are in the area stop by and say "Hi"!
