Hi Friends
I am hoping to get back to listing and painting next week. I will start with a studio sale and will be listing them on ebay cheap! I have been keeping busy moving from old house to new house, cleaning out my art stuff from a building to our new home and chairing the after prom committee along with kids activities and our middle daughter's confirmation.

Hopefully our new move will allow more painting time since it will cut down on 6-8 hours of driving a week.

I hope everything is going great for you and your families! It is a gorgeous day here in Iowa. Sending out best wishes to everyone.

Please watch for my announcement as to when the studio sale will start!
