Final Friday at the Pendleton

IT'S THIS FRIDAY, JANUARY 30!
Stop in at Final Friday 6 - 10 p.m. in the Pendleton Art Center, 1310 Pendleton Street, Over the Rhine. I'll have about 35 pieces of work in the Woman's Art Club studio on the first floor. Just walk past the elevators and keep on going.
It's very warm down there by the boiler room. Think of tropical breezes and pop open a cold brew while you enjoy the art. Hope you can make it.

Finally back to the easel! Life has been a bit overwhelming this fall. If it hadn't been for Margaret reminding me I had a deadline for this piece, it would still be a blank canvas. This is 24 x 30" and a bit bigger than my usual work. The scene is a statue of Cincinnatus at T. Berry International Park. If you aren't familiar, it's at the Ohio end of the Purple People Bridge.
While I'm working on this piece, I'll be preparing mentally to begin a few 8 x 10's for the holidays. I hope y'all don't mind a little wet paint under the Christmas tree this year...

Starbucks and the Free Store

Fountain Square is one of my favorite scenes downtown. When I was invited to bring my work to Starbucks in Blue Ash and paint on the scene, I decided to take the image with me. It was kind of like bringing along an old friend. The challenge this time was to fit all this activity into an 8 x 10" surface.
I got most of it done while shivering in the outdoor cafe, then finished it up last night in my studio. For those who saw me painting last Friday and were interested - here it is! Send me an email if you'd like to purchase. janwrites@fuse.net
And Linda, thanks for all the hot coffee.

Second Sunday on Main

Meet budding artist, Tyrin. While we were enjoying the music and lively breezes, Tyrin was creating a Happy Meal - with dessert, too! The miniature creation was made with Tim's plasticine clay, and sold for $3.00! Way to go, Tyrin!
See you next year.
