UPDATE

It has been a while since my last post so here's an update on my art activities.

We had our last Brunswick 2nd Friday ArtWalk in October and the next 5 Rivers Art Alliance 5raa.org/ event I'll be participating in will be the December Arts Downtown and All Around (ADAA) Friday evening thru Sunday December 6,7 &8.  More about that in an upcoming post.

My wife, Gloria, and I took a nice trip to Bar Harbor, Maine back in October, for a belated 44th wedding anniversary celebration.  Unfortunately, due to the federal government shut down, Acadia was closed.  Fortunately Autumn wasn't closed, so we still got in some great leaf-peeping and I got to do one small plein air painting.  It's still a work-in-progress (WIP) but here it is.  We stopped on Rt.3/198 at Upper Hadlock Pond where I painted for a couple of hours. I don't know if that mountain (?) has a name.  Maybe someone knows this area and can tell me.

Other "news" concerning my world of art is the current show at Lyceum Gallery http://www.lyceumgallery.com/Blog/ in Lewiston, Maine, titled Precious Things. This is a holiday show/sale with pieces not exceeding 5"x5" not including frame size.  If you're looking for a gift of original art to give to a loved one (or even yourself ) this is a great exhibit to check out and get some holiday shopping done.  I have three pieces ($195 each) there myself. A little something for everyone. See below. Please stop by the gallery and tell Tammie Bill sent you.
