China Cove Spring, 16x20
This is my 17th year competing on the Carmel Art Festival. It's held in Devendorf park on Ocean Avenue in Carmel, May 15-17. We will begin painting on the 13th, and hang them on Friday the 15th about noon. Awards will be given about 5:00, with a reception after. New this year: We will also hang larger studio pieces done beforehand on Sunday. Sure hope you can come by to see all the lovely work from some really great artists!
On a personal note: My dear husband Lee had a heart attack the week before Easter. We're so thankful God rescued him and he's feeling pretty good after 4 stents, along with lots of meds and many MD visits! You can understand I haven't been painting since, so hoping I can paint a few that are worthy of the competition. I do have some lovely new larger pieces for Sunday.
