Art in the Square Review

Thanks to everyone who came by to enjoy the beautiful art at this year's Utica Square Art in the Square show yesterday. The weather cooperated and made for a perfect day for viewing the artwork! Here are a few snapshots from my display. This year I featured several Tulsa Cityscapes and architectural scenes from our beautiful city. I was delighted to hear comments such as "you make Tulsa look like it could be Paris" and "it's great to see an artist honoring the place we live". I visited with one long time resident of Tulsa who reminisced as she studied those paintings for quite awhile. That certainly gave impetus to keep doing these as it's the history of such places that captures my curiosity. Popular too were the abstracts, a genre that I'm beginning to explore more to give my creative "muscle" a workout!

A huge thank you goes to all you who purchased art and those who discussed commissioning special paintings - I'm anxious to get started on those projects! Your encouragement and support is very much appreciated.

A special thanks goes to Miss Jackson's for once again hosting a lovely artists reception, the merchants of Utica Square for their support and the staff of Helmerich and Payne for their tireless work in promoting, organizing and hosting what I consider the most beautiful art show around!

Last but not least, my utmost thanks goes to the tireless support of my very dear friends, Jeremy and Lacy, whose gift for design helped me once again set up a most appealing display, my husband for his moral support and willingness to sit with me all day, and to my wonderful friends and family who come every year to see my annual show. And thank you to my family who live around the country who support me in spirit. None of this could be done without all our combined efforts. Thank you.
