Hi all...just thought I'd drop a note in here...starting a new series for the Fall....Celtic Colours here in Cape Breton....the theme is fairies,nymphs and woodland folk lore relating to our Celtic roots ...can't wait to get started the show will be hosted at the Center for Craft and Design Gallery in Sydney ...looking forward to Spring....it is sneaking in finally!!!!! ....finished a commission of a portrait this week..it was well accepted ...don't do many portraits now...too stressful and rather boring........concentrating on developing my own ideas...talk soon...and best wishes to all...Barb

whats new..

Just taught my first 2 classes for this semester...was wonderful as usual....fun to feel the excitement as the students get back into the paint box and set up the canvas...a new challenge a new beginning...for us all....love being a part of it all....
