Taste of the Coulee Region Exhibit

So I was invited to be one of the exhibitors at the "Taste of the Coulee Region" for 2013 in La Crosse on May 30th. I was so honored to be asked and of course said yes!

I've had a couple of months to work on some things and get ready for this really cool event, but I haven't been producing much until now. I always seem to work better under pressure and when there is a time crunch. Some would say, "Why did you wait until the last minute?" I don't know is the answer....it's just what I do and then it comes to me.

Suddenly, I have an out pour of inspiration and start producing work that consumes me. At times I am so wrapped up and passionate about what I am creating that I simply forget to eat...or oh wait, it's 3 in the morning? Everything else disappears except for me and my work...watercolor, acrylic, charcoal....sometimes all of them in one. I test the limits of the materials and work in layers. I play with textures, but let the history show through as I work. It is a process that I enjoy.

And finally there is that moment where I realize I made something great...because it consumed me. The other day I saw something that read, "Find your happy."

This is my happy...

SOLD

All of these new works will most likely make the exhibit at the "Taste of the Coulee Region" for purchase. Please contact me if you are interested in any of these works.

Thanks for looking!
