Lincoln Park Pet Boutique: Barker & Meowsky invited me to be their featured artist this Friday, June 19th for Tasteful Art on the Avenue an evening of fine art, gourmet cuisine, and boutique shopping from 6-9 p.m. I will be there with many of my canine canvases - you and your pets are welcome to come by: 1003 West Armitage. We'd love to see you!

Wristbands are available for purchase at all participating boutiques for $10.00. All proceeds from Tasteful Art on the Avenues benefit Children's Memorial Hospital of Chicago.

I was very surprised and excited to see my Design for the Prairie Village Art Fair Poster on a Billboard as I drove into Kansas City on I-35 last month. According to Art Fair Administrator, Donna Potts, this was a new marketing opportunity for the show brought about by our economic times.

You would love to have a wonderful, whimsical portrait of your Pet...but things are a little tight? No worries, I have come up with a budget friendly solution. My process always includes a full color custom digital sketch (see center image above), instead of making a painting from the custom sketch I will refine it a bit and then have a Ready to Hang Laminated Print made for you. Additional prints in other sizes can also be created at my regular print prices.

The first THREE orders I receive for these new Portrait Prints will receive a 25% DISCOUNT- You must order by June 30th to receive the discount.

The Evanston Fountain Square Art Festival takes place June 27-28th from 10am-6pm. You will find me in Booth #68 on the East side of Sherman just North of Church Street. Hope to see you!

I met California Sculptural Jeweler, Ronne Prinz earlier this month at the 57th Street Art Fair. You can read my blog post and visit her website to see more of her delightful work. Rone will be exhibiting this weekend at the Milwaukee Lakefront Festival of the Arts.
