I was at the Bellaire Art Festival to wrap up the month of April. I did portrait sketches with fellow members of the Markos Group to raise funds for HCAA. Some HCAA members did some plein aire art. I brought my paints but had plenty of fun just doing the sketches. We also did a little Tai Chi to get flexible. Danny, David, Willie, Lienchen and I enjoyed visiting with our models. I also got to do an English Sheep dog, one of my favorite breeds. Who said hairy "children" don't make good models?

For May you can visit me at the HCAA gallery on the 8th, for "Art & Dessert". You can also pick up your favorite prints from the Mexico series at Casa Ramirez in the Heights. I'll be in production mode most of May so you'll be seeing more updates on the site. Until then, enjoy the weather and treat yourself to some new art.
