MAY WORKSHOP in beautiful East Texas.

Join me at Selah Inn and Retreat in May for a comprehensive look at
who you are as a person and as an artist. This workshop will benefit any level 
artist and promises to be a time of rest, renewal and rejuvenation for you and your art.

I have taught art for 30 years, but this is my first workshop.
The cost of the workshop is minimal ($295)  because I wanted to have it specifically at this 
phenomenal retreat center. Your cost of rooming includes all meals and snacks. Visit the links below to find out more about cost and reservations, or email me.

Well when I went to bed last night it was still snowing. I know we have over a foot on the ground and we were not suppose to even have an inch.  Go figure. 

Tonight is the formal Charity Ball in Mt Pleasant for Cypress Basin Hospice.  I am hoping it warms up enough to start melting the snow so we can drive there!  This will be revealed in a few hours I am sure.


I spoke with Selah Ranch yesterday and I am going to delay my workshop until May. I will have a confirmed date and syllabus out in about 7-10 days.  I am working in God's time with this. They had suggested I do it the first of April, but I never felt confident with that date. May feels better to me. Selah Ranch is an absolutely gorgeous retreat based on renewal, retreat and rest. That is what I want for every artist that attends. I also encourage husbands and friends to come along.  It is a vacation inside a workshop.  Candy, the owner is putting together a package where all meals will be included as well as snacks and drinks during your stay.  As soon as I get those figures from her and a date confirmed, I will have it posted on the blog on the side where you can click and down load a pdf with all the information on it.


Have you ever realized how when you are happy or excited about something that your joy reaches out and affects everyone around you? It is contagious. When you share happy times with friends and family you easily pass the joyful high on to anyone you meet over the next few days or even weeks.  This is my goal for the workshop. Make it your goal in life. Share the joy.

Those of you that follow my blog know that Hospice means much to us after the death of my father-in-law Ben Pace. Hospice is no longer just care at the end in the last six weeks of life. Hospice today is care for all levels of need and is in place for the comfort of the patient at all times. Hospice is family based for quality end of life care that provides compassion, dignity, independence and respect. Many patients go on Hospice that provides care once or twice a week and stay at that level until the need arises to go to 24 hour care.  

Terry and I support this beautiful transition that is available for families dealing with life limiting illness that strike their loved ones.  His father Ben was a picture of health and once his breathing issues surfaced, it was only about  a year longer that he lived and the last two months were a nightmare for him. 

Here is a bit of information about this specific event in Mt Pleasant Texas. It is an honor to be apart of this fundraiser.


Hearts for Hospice Ball

 “The social event of the year for this part of Northeast Texas”, is how one guest describes the most successful fundraiser for Cypress Basin Hospice.  This “Black Tie Optional” event is held on the first Saturday in February and is presented by an all volunteer group of individuals from the communities served by the Cypress Basin Hospice.  Mark Scirto, a well known Tyler celebrity, and meteorologist serves as the Master of Ceremonies. The prestigious evening includes a catered meal, action packed silent and live auctions, and live music from the  “Grateful Geezers”, a Houston band who has performed at this event since 2006. Tickets can be purchased through the Cypress Basin Hospice office after January 1st.  Don't delay as these tickets sell out fast; corporate sponsorships are also available.  



Call us at 903-577-1510 for more information.

Visit my blog below to see the new painting I am beginning this week...
it is entitled Winter Solstice, inspired by the colors outside the windows in my studio.





Mirada Gallery sold one of my larger pieces last week, Desert Sun.     I was so excited to learn more about the new owner as I did a collector book for her of this painting. She is a gifted poet and I included some of her poetry in her book on the painting. This is the third painting this year they have sold of my work at Mirada. It stayed here in the states. The first one lives in Canada and the second one flew to Australia.  I cannot thank Gallery Manager Steve enough for his constant vigilance and work with me for joint marketing and providing what collectors want for their investment.  It helps with the wonderful recognition and representation of American Art Collector and Western Art Collector.   With the new agreement with Contemporary Fine Art International, there will be new things with Southwest Art.
