Last weekend’s shows with Martin’s Gallery in Hanover, Pennsylvania, and King James Galleries of Gettysburg were a joy. It was such fun to kick off the holiday season with so many wonderful friends.

I received a warm welcome from Santa himself in Gettysburg.

This weekend I’ll be showing with my friends at Medlin Art, Ltd., in Leesburg, Virginia, November 1-2, and with Apple Barn Gallery in Buchanan, Virginia, on November 3. On Monday morning, November 4, I’ll have the honor of delivering the keynote address at Blue Ridge Community College’s Third Annual “Make Art Your Business” Conference.

The Laurel Brigade will be released during my show with Medlin Art, Ltd., in Leesburg, VA, November 1-2. For more information, please contact the gallery at 703-771-8696.

Mountain Lake will be released during my show with Apple Barn Gallery in Buchanan, VA, on November 3. Mountain Lake is where the movie Dirty Dancing was filmed. For more information, please contact the gallery at 540-254-6677.

It’s a busy life but a good one!

Pat
