I'm not a busy artist. It just seems that things fall together the same few weeks every year! I don't know how artists who enter a lot of shows do it and keep it all straight.
This morning, I drove over to Mariemont to drop off 2 paintings for the Greater Cincinnati Watercolor Society show which begins with an artist reception/opening this Sunday, June 2nd from 1-4 pm. The Barn is on Cambridge Avenue and is where the Woman's Art Club of Cincinnati meets. Do stop by, if you can.
And I just finished my online entries for the Cincinnati Art Club Viewpoint show. Juried entries, so one never knows but we were allowed to enter 4 with the possibility of 2 being accepted. Juror who decides = John Ruthven (who paints wildlife like Audubon painted wildlife).
After all that time spent on the large painting of crows and such, I decided it wasn't that strong a painting so didn't enter it. Oh, well! That just means you get to see it.
(I thought it was too heavy in the middle and too light on the bottom so would rearrange the "round" things if I did this again).
My intent = to use the crows as the "X's" and the rounder things (stone, full moon, egg, silver ball) as the "O's" in the game of tic tac toe. It's a full sheet and I called it Tic Tac Crow.
I won't show the others until I find out if they are or are not accepted.
So today, emails to get ready for next week's watercolor society meeting and visit from Carol Carter and then just relax, watch some tennis, and enjoy the day - windy and warm so far today. Have a great weekend!
