Hal's Garage

This morning a friend and I painted a picturesque old gas station that we had been wanting to paint for months. Hal's Garage is on the west side of Fayette, a small town 30 some miles west of Toledo.

Art Show at the Opera House

I am one of nine artists participating in the Beancreek Area Artists Exhibit at the newly restored Opera House, 105 East Main St., in Fayette. The show runs from June 2-July 2, 2012. The opening reception is June 2, 2012 from 6-9:00 PM and if you are in the area you're invited to stop in and view the shows and meet the artists.

Many thanks to Kristin Michalkiewicz and the Fayette Arts Council for organizing this event and inviting me to be a part of it.

Fayette, Ohio

I had a booth at the Fayette Fall Fest this year and sold some coach prints. I painted this street scene while I sat there. it was a beautiful day- low 70's and sunny with a s light breeze. Everyone was buzzing about the economy and not too many people were spending money so I guess i was fortunate to sell anything. The mayor was going to buy this when she saw it in her early stages but then she backed out at the end of the day, admitting she probably needed to save some money for an upcoming wedding. I am pretty sure I can sell it for more than she was going to spend.
