The process was not only painless, it was actually highly enjoyable and informative. Bethany has a background working in a high end commercial art gallery and is passionate about art herself. I would like to share the article and her very creative site with you. Feedback is welcome!

Wishing you and yours a very merry holiday season!

Cheers,

I have been obsessed with water and things that swim and move about in it for the past many months. A once in a lifetime adventure to the Galapagos Islands this summer has also helped to fuel my fire. I love the sense of mystery and movement that the sea holds, the possibility for coming upon the most alien and exotic creatures and the connectedness of it all below the surface. It is a subject that I once felt I would never attempt to portray, being a prairie girl, but it is big and strong and its pull is tremendous, a force so much greater than me.

I am delighted to have been invited to exhibit this new work at the Blue Moon Estate Winery at Nature’s Way farm for the month of October in conjunction with their Oyster Extravaganza Full Moon dinner. Hope you can make it out there!
