This time of year is my busiest with school starting up for my daughter and the summer show season winding down. Though there’s technically still several weeks of summer left there is a definite shift that happens with the advent of these two events each year. I’ve been so busy painting in my studio, still working on commissions and creating new pieces to show at Sausalito. I just finished this pastel this morning in time to get it to the framer. Titled “Dream with a View” this is a rendition of my own version of a “dream” home. Pulling from my inspiration of a heightened reality this painting reminds me of walking into a lucid dream – a theme that has shown up repeatedly in my work.
If you’re in the Bay Area for Labor Day Weekend the Sausalito Art Festival is a great event with wonderful art, entertainment, food and libations. I’ll be in Booth Space 600 right near the entrance. This is my 11th year in a row exhibiting at the festival and it is my favorite event of the year. Simultaneously, I am exhibiting as part of a group show of landscape artists at Robert Allen Gallery, also in Sausalito.
