Greeting for the New Year. Little late with this update,partly procrastination.
The year ended with cancellation, due to rain of the winter Woodland Hills Show. However, was invited to participate in the Westland School Boutique. Hoped to sell Holiday/Xmas cards. Did so, but was delighted that Mr and Mrs Michael Giacchino purchased "Table Symphony". This was a fund raiser for the school as well,so all parties benefitted. Dr Christine Charles, a rheumatologist at UCLA School of Medicine bought one of the "Eden Series",illustrated in the book,"#6,Blue Lagoon" I had used this painting as my screen saver. Shirley Lane and Dr Scott Binder purchased the original canvas paintings of 2 new images added to the Xmas/Holiday collection. Otherwise the holiday period was quiet but working on a sculpture and adding cards to the original card collection.
First show of the year was this last weekend in Palm Springs. Three day show over President's Day. Very slow on Saturday and Sunday and slower on the Monday, which was highlighted however,by meeting John and Suzanne Griffith who purchased my prize winning entry in the Westlake Village Art Guild members show
held January 6-29,2010, entitled "Oriental Composition in Yellow". Thanks due Dennis Griffin and Craig Morton for organization. Was also delighted to meet up again with very old friends and onetime colleague, Dr Marshall Cheung and his wife Ann. Joined us for dinner and reminiscence.
