Men's jewelry for Father's Day

This attractive, manly piece is made with silver-coated lava beads, glass beads, and black leather.   It measures around nineteen inches long with a classy toggle clasp.  Can you see your Dad or hubby in this?  Looked verry good on Steve!

These bronze bracelets are made for a man, but, heck, just as nice-looking on a woman! 

Next weekend, June 23, we'll be setting up in Danville, at their Arts in the Park celebration.  This is a very well run event, even giving the artists a very nice Friday evening meal.  Good artists, music, and hopefully good weather!  This show honored me with the Best of Show award last year!!!  So, I guess, no wonder I like it there!

This is another photo I'm thinking of painting.  A very scenic little farm in Dewitt County.    

We'll be leaving the market right at noon this Saturday, which means having to start loading up at 11:30am.  The bronzclay class in Decatur, 40 miles away, is scheduled at 1pm, so we have to hustle down there to get set up for the class.  As far as I know at this time, there are a couple of spots left for students. 

I just read the blog of Dylan Punke, a local photographer well-known to art fair attendees.  He's started on a cross-country bicycle trip to the northwest!  What a brave soul!  Keep an eye on his progress at http://www.departgallery.blogspot.com/.

This is a photo of a field south of Heyworth, one of my favorite scenes to paint.
