I was accepted to display my small gouache paintings in The Tiny Art Show in Hermann, Missouri. The Fancy Pheasant and The Old Vine Kitchen Emporium, two stores which are across the street from each other, are hosting the show. There are 230 business card sized pieces of art for sale made by about fifty artists. The stores' owners priced each piece at $75. The show runs from now until November 22nd.
My husband and I attended the opening reception last night and saw some beautiful tiny artwork. We also really enjoyed the Landscape: Views from the Easel art exhibit at the Scenic Regional Library. There sure are a lot of talented artists' work on display this fall in such a small town!
Last week I participated in the Creve Coeur Plein Air event and my painting was awarded Honorable Mention! It was like the icing on the cake to a very fun experience. (My painting was also purchased!)
The weather was perfect for being outdoors, I met five other friendly and talented artists, and I was surrounded by birds all day, including an owl!
For me, painting plein air is a wonderful way to focus only on creating and making pretty art. I highly recommend it for uplifting your spirits!
