How much is “so much”? Well, as much as the low light and bad air allows, in order to be ready for. . .

The Courthouse Gallery in Exeter has asked me to do a solo show for November and December!  I don’t know the exact dates yet, because they don’t exactly know the dates yet. 

When they first asked, I did inventory of available paintings and drawings, because they said they’d like to have both. The inventory was a little loosey-goosey, because I didn’t know if pieces would sell before that time. (This was pre-fire.) Kaweah Arts and the Silver City Store have been closed since shortly after Labor Day, so sales have stopped. Further, I have 9 paintings in the store, and no one is getting in there any time soon. No one is going up the road except fire fighters, and it is treacherous. 

This means I need to finish some new paintings in order to fill up the gallery.

Therefore, the painting I thought I would do for my dining room of my favorite subject will need to be finished and for sale. It’s okay; I can paint it again for Big Queen Me-Me.

This one needs to be finished.

I can do that.

See? Just one edge left to paint, let it dry, sign it, photograph it, and move on.

Next!
