Fabulous Fall

     As summer comes to a close and the cooler weather creeps slowly in, fall is in the air with a new excitement of football games, festivals, fundraisers, and lots of events.  So far my fall has been FABULOUS!  My team has been winning in football...my little Boo will soon turn one on Halloween...and the art world is flourishing!
     I was proud to be asked by my good friend Amber Ivey Bostwick to join her in her new gallery on Old Shell Road.  Amber has opened the first and only gallery in the Springhill area of Mobile, Alabama.  She held a Grand Opening on Thursday, September 25th.  Thanks to all of you who came by ~ a good time was had by all!  Lots of great wine... great music by Dennis "Finger Roll" Nelson (jazz artist)... and great company!! 
     I have been painting a new series called "Line of Faith".  My inspiration for this series comes from my favorite verse in Hebrews.  By putting all my hope in God's hands, it puts reality into perspective.  The reality is that just because you hope for something, it doesn't always turn out the way you planned.  We don't know God's plan for our lives.  We have to have a "line of faith" ...then praise Him in all circumstances.  By taking a leap of faith... I've discovered a true freedom. 


"Now faith is what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."
Hebrews 11:1
