Video Queen I am not.

Well - I attempted to do a video of my daughter while at Horse Camp. It's cute but I am no video queen, that's for sure. I loved picking the music and loved watching it. She is just so happy. I will recommend this camp to any little girl. It was absolutely wonderful. It's Peachtree Farms in Arrington, TN. Not too far. The owner and instructors really care about the girls learning about horses and the safety involved as well.

As far as work. I just got a new commission that is going to be fun. Can't tell you about it b/c it is a secret for the recipient. I will show you as soon as I'm done. Finished up two commissions and the clients were happy. That's always a good thing.

Getting ready for a show this weekend in Columbia, TN called Art Effects. Should be a lot of fun. Just finished the last two backgrounds. I will do the black tonight before bed. Here are some of the pieces that will be at the show this weekend. Here's the link to the shows website. Please come out if you can.

Horse Camp and Paint Parties

Well - it's monday and I'm wasted tired from July 4th activities. It was a great weekend with fun at the pool saturday and then fireworks saturday night. All took place is our neighborhood. That's always nice. Don't have to drive far. Beer & Margarita's anyone? Then sunday we had some friends over for a cookout and then to bed early.

This morning I had a little girl that was sooo excited she could hardly contain herself. She started Horse Camp this week. She goes from 9-12 every day and learns how to ride and take care of a horse. I was blown away by what she learned the first day. Of course she told me she already knew a lot of this info b/c she has books on it. I told her to listen anyway, just in case. She loved it and can't wait to go back tomorrow. Here are some photos of the cutest little rider you've ever seen.

I also enjoyed having another paint party in Westhaven last week. These ladies had a blast and so did I. I might start doing these monthly over at their clubhouse which would great for getting the word out. These ladies had painted before and mostly did oils. I felt good I was actually able to teach them something. Of course at the end - they said they had a wonderful time and that in turn stroked my ego which is always nice. Here are some shots from the party. Spread the news. I need the money! Ciao.
