The season is beginning to roll

Wow! Where did the summer go? I can't believe we are in September already....but the calendar insists that it is so! Bob and I scheduled a lot of travel this year which has been thrilling and so fulfilling, but certainly has played havoc with our time. We have either been preparing for a trip or getting back to normal and catching up upon our return from a trip. This has been the case this week. We just came back from an 18 day Alaskan cruise and tour that was absolutely wonderful. The trip confirmed all the gushing from others who have done an Alaskan cruise. The pristine wilderness was awe inspiring. To see wildlife in their natural habitat was thrilling. The only downside was cold and rainy weather.....but that is Alaska! I have a lot of photos that may become paintings. I am not sure I can do justice to the majesty of the Alaska mountains and glaciers.....but I feel I must give it a good try...so stay tuned!

One of the tasks I needed to complete prior to leaving for our cruise in mid August was to enter two different competitions. This week back included framing four pieces that were delivered to a show yesterday. I also have a piece that needs to be ready for a show in Cave Creek later this month. I am also considering entering the Arizona State Fair Art Department which is a juried exhibition. Yes....the active show season in Arizona is beginning to roll!! It is my hope that I will be announcing awards and or sales in this blog in the coming weeks!
