ART SHOWS

Good thing I had some things preset to post, because a cold has knocked me out for a week.  Have slept a lot and taken a lot of cold medicine and watched everything I've taped on my DVR, including The English Patient (love that movie and book).  Am slowly getting back to normal, with just a few sneezing fits. 

Thanks to Sweetie, I got another painting matted and framed (well, he did it all for me, thank goodness!) for the Evergreen Show.  The drop off date is next Friday so I was feeling the pressure of not having anything ready for that.  Now I have 2 paintings for that show which opens Sunday, Sept. 23rd noon-4 pm. 

The Cincinnati Art Club had their opening reception for the Signature Member Show last night.  I didn't go - didn't want to pass around this cold.  But I will get over there to see it because I know my friend, Deb Ward, has a piece or two in the show.  If you're in the area, do visit some weekend.  I think it's open from noon-4 on the weekends.  You might check Deb's blog for more information about that.  I've never joined the Art Club - I think 2 groups is enough for me.

Hope you all have a good weekend.  Stay healthy!

Hi Rhonda,
Sorry to hear you've had the cold: I had it a couple of weeks ago-not fun. Congrats on having two pieces in the show, I'm sure it will be great.

Hello Rhonda:) You stay healthy! Wish you already good luck at the end of september with your show!
How handy to have a husband that makes the frames. I need to talk with mine:(

Sorry to hear you're under the weather and hope you are feeling really well soon.

Meantime, rest and chicken soup might help a bit.

Glad to hear you are on the mend yourself Rhonda. I'm not in any art groups. I know of one in my area but they meet during work hours. I guess one is only considered a real artist if their job is art. Unfortunately, our finances require me to have a steady income! LOL Glad you have your sweetie to help you when you aren't feeling well.

Thanks so much, everyone, for your positive thoughts and comments. I am on the mend - at about 75% right now so will soon be back to 100% :) I always say, Whether you take meds or not, a cold lasts 7-10 days. The meds just help tamp down on the coughing and sneezing. I like to take something that knocks me out so I just sleep through most of it! haha
