The Pelicans are Coming!

It is time for the Pelicans to arrive at Grand Lake and it is also time for Grove to hold the annual Pelican Festival. The Brush and Palette Club and Gallery held a contest for pelican art. This is my entry in that contest. The winners of the contest will be shown at the Pelican Festival in the booth of the Brush and Palette Club. There are a lot of great entries in the contest so I don't know what my chances of getting a ribbon are, but it would be nice to be shown off at the festival where all the visitors to Grand Lake will get to see it. That would be cool. The pelicans that come to Grand Lake are the white variety, so in my mixed media collage I included two brown pelicans that are standing on the dock. The title of the piece is "Brown is not "in" this year". The price of this Mixed Media art work is $245.00 plus S/H. The frame is dark wood.

How I have been spending my year so far. 2007 - 2008

I have been, and am, very proud to be the President of my art club, The Brush & Palette, this year and it looks like I will be in this office for another year according to the nominations that have been made. Being President takes a lot of my time but I think it's worth the time because I am able to work on projects that I think are important for the future of the club, local art community and young artists that are up and coming. I hope if you visit my town, Grove, Oklahoma, that you will visit the club and art gallery. It is located in a very old building that needs renovation badly but we sure can create some wonderful art there. The area is loaded with talent and we love showing it off at the Brush & Palette Club and Gallery.
