JULY FLIES BY



Above images: 2 bowls from my last glaze firing

I have been so busy I have not had time to catch up here on the blog. I have been showing some work at the Healdsburg Center for the Arts and that show is (already!) coming down on Monday Aug. 2. I have also been at the Grand Lake Market in Oakland a few times, and at the Stonestown market and the San Rafael Civic Center market as well.


I have several paintings working--all at different stages. And I am about to do another bisque firing with my ceramics. I am experimenting with a new kind of clay, which I am planning on using slips and oxides on, and am very excited to work with that again.


I will be doing markets through August, and then September is going to be a wild and mixed up kind of month. Here's the lineup:


*Sat & Sun Sept 4 & 5 (Labor Day Weekend) I will be doing an OPEN STUDIO at my studio here in Point Reyes which is in the Greenbridge Gas Station building. Hours are 11am to 5pm.


*Sat Sept 11 We are having an OPEN HOUSE at the ceramics studio--MILL STATION CERAMICS at 9878 Mill Station Rd (near Occidental Rd) Hours will be 3pm to 6pm. We have 4 members--all with different styles and processes.


* Sat Sept. 18 I will be at the Benicia Fine Arts Fair on 1st St. in downtown Benicia. This is a great show. Hours are from 10am to 4pm


*Sat Sept. 25 I will be at the Healdsburg Art Festival on the Square in Healdsburg. Hours are 10am to 6pm.


I also will be at Stonestown market and the San Rafael Civic Center market if I have enough energy.


And last but not least--Rainbow Grocery on Folsom St. in SF is carrying my cards & magnets again and has pledged to continue carrying them--so stop in and buy a card so they know I'm wanted! (Smile)

LIVE OAK PARK FAIR


Berkeley's 40th Annual
Live Oak Park Fair
1301 Shattuck Ave.
Sat & Sun June 12 & 13
10 am to 6 pm
This is one of my favorite fairs--I have been doing it now for about 4 years. The setting is lovely--quality of the work presented is excellent, and it is a pleasant and mellow event. I will be showing original paintings, giclee prints, cards and magnets. If you are in the Bay area, check it out. And it is only a couple of blocks away from some great Berkeley restaurants Come & enjoy!
