My first ever Phippen Museum Western Art Show and Sale went really well! Everyone who stopped in to see my work had positive comments. Backing up... this show was juried and I was accepted/notified sometime in February. I wanted new paintings to show and completed 10 oils just for the show. I set up Friday night, May 25th, with the help of two nephews and a niece. Saturday morning was windy and cool, luckily my canopy stayed put. Even with the cold weather on Saturday, many people came downtown for the show. The Phippen show is known to be one of the best shows downtown and always attracts art-interested folk. The comments ranged from "beautiful," "peaceful," "love your colors," "distinct style," "love your frames," and (my favorite) "your art is the best I've seen in the entire show." Yep, got an ego boost! On top of it all, I sold 3 oil paintings!! I plan to do the show again next year (I already reserved a space). In the meantime, you can find my work at the Frame & I, 229 W. Gurley St, Prescott, AZ. (
