"Red Kimono"
9X12 oil on canvas
As the title implies, I'm going to be in Ben Wheeler this week-end with quite a few small, unframed paintings for sale. If you're interested in collecting, this is a good place to start. Most of the paintings I'm bringing are what I would describe as "studies". Studies are generally small, and more times than not, unframed and less expensive as the larger framed pieces.
I will NOT be in park with a tent. I will be either inside or just outside the "Walking Horse" gallery. For those of you not familiar with Ben Wheeler, it's the blue building across the street from The Forge. If tomorrow's weather is similar to today's...I will probably be inside. I don't care for sweating. As you know...I am a delicate flower.
In other news...I'm hoping to take a little trip to New Castle, New Hampshire in July for a private showing. I hope to meet a lot of new people - whether collectors or not - and get lots and lots of photo references for future paintings. And I'll freely admit that the cooler temperature is not without significance.
If you've never been to Ben Wheeler (that seems an awkward sentence to say...too many "ben"s for my taste), this would be a good week-end to check it out. And for those who enjoy a nice meal and relaxation (that is to say drinking), there are two nice restaurants in town, both of which have a nice selection of beers and wines. I hope to see you there!
