Tuesday's prattle...........
It has been a busy time around here as my wife had to ship four paintings to Oklahoma for an art show. She belongs to a group of artists that sell together on the internet and one of the members arranged for a show to take place down there. We aren't going to be able to attend but the work will get there and be hung for a month or two. The group is called Chisholm Trail Art.
I had to make the four frames and get them stained and finished the past few weeks. I was very particular with them as they were headed to an art gallery. It took us both a couple of days to get them packed and shipped in two different boxes. My wife also sold a painting to a customer in California so the shipping of that was on the agenda today also. The paintings ranged from a landscape to horses.
Did I forget to tell you my wife made me a red velvet cake for Valentine's Day? It is all gone now but it was delicious.
While subbing in one of the rooms last week I took a photo of this canvas bag that the teacher was using for a decoration. It looked like she collected chicken things and this was a nice illustration.
Our weather turned cold again but it is with a lot less snow on the ground for now. I can tell the days are getting longer but I do know we will have more snow sometime between now and April. I didn't get called in today for teaching as they were having conferences today, but that was a very good thing. I can't believe how much piles up in the way of work when other people have things for you to do.
Thanks for stopping by and take care.

I has been years since I have had a piece of Red Velvet Cake..and it looks so good..I hope you enjoyed it! :)
Red Velvet is one of my favorites. In college, my best friend's mom would send one back with her and we would devour it!!!
I've never heard of a Red Velvet cake. Is it chocolate?
Funny that you couldn't resist the photo urge!
Larry, the red velvet cake looked delicious and Grenville likes that cake also. I have a local artist friend who might be interested in selling online. Is there a link for a website? BTW your frames look great!
There will be an arts festival at the local community college this weekend and I plan to take some photos for a blog post. The nice thing about this festival is that its free for anyone to participate AND sell their works. I have an overstock of photo cards from when I was doing local shows and hope to sell a few as finding for the future camera purchase.
