I just returned from a 'little vacation' to Harbor Springs, Michigan. This area is one of my favorites in the State, especially in the summer. The area is surrounded by natural beauty, lakes, hiking and wonderful galleries and shopping. Recently I was invited by gallery owner, Margaret Tvedten, to show in her gallery so this week we stopped by with several new paintings of my abstracted landscapes works. We so enjoyed visiting and meeting Margaret during this slow season. She, too, is gearing up for the summer season by taking days to paint in her studio.
The work I took to her gallery was mostly large and she loved them and requested more by June, she was very positive - and she should be, she knows her art and her business and has been there for a long time! Her artwork is wonderful (including her welded sculpture) as well as the select artists that she represents!
So, I'm back to the studio, not wasting any time, ordered more large panels and am working on adding to my inventory here in the studio. Joyful days ahead!
