Georgetown Library Exhibition for Austin Pastel Society

"Fishing Allure" has memorabilia from Dallas friend Walt Henderson's grandfather's tackle box and related fishing gear. "Vineyard Peonies" was one of many works done this year in our garden in Massachusetts. Maybe I chose them because of spring themes. The third piece is one from a couple years ago, "Spring Fleur-de-lis," included earlier in this blog. Artists' reception is this Sunday, Feb. 5, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Georgetown Library, 403 West 8th Street.

"Holden"

I completed this earlier in the year and am just posting. Holden Easterling's portrait was commissioned by his grandmother, Louise Ratz, for daughter Leslie, through a KKG fundraiser here in Austin. Louise, Leslie and dad Brandon all worked with me to capture Holden's adorable looks and personality.
