Well...it's been three months since I posted something for you...sorry, because I know you have been dying to know where I have been!
I have been to the Mountain; I have been to the River; and then I started painting again. That's right, I took a few weeks off after our very successful opening at The Art Cellar Memorial Day weekend. We left the Gulf a month later than usual, and spent the month of May getting ready for Bob's Big Art Show. Then, in June, I gave myself an early Father's Day present...I drove to Nashville for lunch with our daughter, then continued to Memphis to go fishing in Arkansas with our son. Got to see a couple of my best old friends in Memphis...Ralph Michael, who was recovering from bypass surgery, and Nicky, who is battling cancer. Well, two years ago I had both major valves repaired when they cracked me open in Greensboro! What is going on? I had to have the month of July to think about it all...and I am still thinking about it...so that's my story and I'm stickin' to it!
So, the first paintings are about Arkansas...people. I met so many new interesting people on the Little Red River in Central Arkansas, thanks to my long-time friend and fishing guide, Randy Goins. Bo loves fishing...and he has left the "president-CEO" title to his son...so he can fish! Thanks to Mike Winkler of The Ozark Angler for "posing" for my first painting...more to come...more people...stay tuned.
