I am a painter working in pastels, with some oils, and acrylics. I sketch in pen and ink. As an artist my original paintings are influenced from living in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Bolivia, Peru and Chile, and travels throughout much of Canada and forty-nine of our fifty States. This is my spot for posting paintings and sketches, to muse mostly about art and a little about golf and UT Baseball.

Kelly's Gymnast
My artist/sculpture friend, Kelly Borsheim is off in Italy again, working hard on her art. She can use those carving tools and paint brushes with style. Have a look at her "Gymnast" and read how it was created and carved. You can see it in person in Dripping Springs, Texas. Not too far from Austin. Check out her website and blog. You may remember her from previous posts when she was painting on the sidewalks in Italy. Probably more of that on the way, don't you think?

So good of you to promote your friend's work, Jo. I loved seeing your scavenger hunt sketches--very nice work and a fun idea.
Mary, it is always easy to share about Kelly, she is amazing. Thanks for stopping in. Interesting post about shadows on your blog.
Fascinating. I can't imagine you ever working on something for that long a period of time, Mom! :-)
Joanna, ain't that the truth? I guess that is why I'm not a sculptor. Evil grin.
