Helena is Square

Check out what my big girl did.  I was working on a piece where I was “paper-quilting,” and Helena really liked it.  I told her that it was easy, and helped pick a few patterned papers & cut out some squares.  She picked the patterns, colors, and did the layout.  Helena Rocks!

Indian Art & History Celebration

I really enjoyed the Indian Art Show this weekend despite  having a cold.  It was great to meet and talk to the artists at the reception.  They were all so friendly.  I bought a few prints from Anita Caldwell Jackson.  Below is the print that I bought for Aubry. 

 

Anita’s website is www.twonationsart.com.  I loved all of her artwork.  I bought a print for Helena as well.  It’s actually the image on her business card if you have one, but I bought the pencil-only version.  Anita’s art is awesome. 

 I also bought Helena a print by Victoria McKinney with the Pink-Poodle contrary.

 So many great stories.   The music was also amazing! 

My first tile

I originally put this up on the Foothills blog, but thought I should share it here as well. 

Each gallery member received at least 1 of these 6 x 6 masonite “tiles” for their own creative pleasure.  InTown Gallery did a similar project, and put created a larger mosaic piece with all of the tiles.  Pretty cool.
