I can't believe it's been over a month since I've posted. Linda and I spent a great week in Asheville, NC, not much 2D art but tons of pottery and woodwork. We really enjoy all that the downtown has to offer.

Linda just found out that the painting that was accepted into the Artist Professional League show at the Salmagundi Club in New York won the "Helen DeCozen Award For a Floral". This is Linda's second national award in two years. The other was the "Founders' Award for Excellence in Painting" from the American Academy of Equine Art in Lexington, KY.

Linda has been so busy with the business side of her career the last few weeks she has barely had time to paint. That should be changing soon as she fulfills some commitments to benefit auctions and a possible local solo show.
