For the past 20 years or so, I’ve been part of a group called the Kaweah Artisans. We put on a little boutique-sale-show-event each year on the Friday and Saturday following Thanksgiving. We’ve been at the Three Rivers Arts Center for many years, but this year we will be somewhere else in Three Rivers. THE […]
Art: Inspired By Mineral King
After 7-8 months of painting toward a show about Mineral King and (almost) in Mineral King, it is tomorrow! Is it considered shouting to use bold type? Or is that only for capital letters? I’ve always always always considered italics to be whispering, so maybe this paragraph will be more soothing to your ears. Four artists […]
More New Oil Paintings
All those paintings of Mineral King over the past several months erased the subject of Three Rivers from my mind. When I got reminded that I hadn’t yet reserved my booth for the Redbud Festival, I also remembered that people might want to see some Three Rivers subjects during that little show.
8 Recent Happenings
Today there are many topics to address, so we will have a long list. I went away with my sisters and our Mom for a family funeral. Supposed to be a sad time, but it was surprisingly fun. Tomorrow and Sunday is the South Valley ARTists’ Studio Tour. Will I see you there? You can […]
A Different Type of Event
Tomorrow I will be participating in a different sort of event. It is part of 1st Saturday, Three Rivers. I will be with 3 other Kaweah Artisans in a barn at a farm outside of Three Rivers. You can learn about 1st Saturday Three Rivers by clicking (or tapping if you have a “device”) on […]
Shows, Festivals, Bazaars and Boutiques
These are all words that mean schlepping my work and supporting structures to some place (usually with the assistance of Trail Guy), setting it up to look appealing, and standing around greeting people and selling them things. Not “selling” selling, just helping people acquire things they want to own or give away. I don’t want […]
Perfect Gift Boutique
Someone said this is our 16th 17th annual Perfect Gift Boutique (the same someone who made the little ad above). That is difficult to fathom. Must be having fun, because time is flying! To get to the Three Rivers Arts Center, head east on Highway 198. After you pass the first commercial part of town […]
Perfect Gift Boutique coming Friday and Saturday
What are you doing, California Artist? I mean Central California Artist? I’m pretending to be a sign painter again. Why? There is a show coming soon for the Kaweah Artisans. Who? A loosely formed group of craftswomen, men and artists who are sort of based within the Kaweah River area. Ka-what? “Kah-WEEE-uh” is the name […]
Holiday Bazaar at Three Rivers Memorial Building
Another upcoming event for this Central California Artist. November is my busiest month of the year! Who would have guessed this? The Senior League Holiday Bazaar has been happening for many years at the local Veterans Memorial Building. It used to seem podunk to me, and now I appreciate it as a great low-key event […]
Hidden in the Leaves
Hidden in the Leaves is the title of a show sponsored by the Arts Alliance of Three Rivers. At last count there were 17 Three Rivers artists participating. The show hangs in the dining room of Sierra Subs, along the highway in Three Rivers just before you see the Shell gas sign. (Easier to spot than […]
