It looks like we're going to have a glorious weekend for the Lenox Autumn Art Festival, sunshine and mild temperatures. Come and stroll the streets, be inspired by all the art, and speak to artists about their work.

With my artwork, my goal is to create a scene you want to step into. With all the troubling times these days, I just want to sink into my paintings and be transported.

I will be set up at 71 Church Street in front of Firefly Restaurant. I will have 20 small paintings with me, as well as giclée reproductions of 12 of my favorite paintings. And then step into the Lenox Gallery of Fine Art at 69 Church Street to see my larger paintings.

Once again I will be participating in the 2008 Lenox Autumn Art Festival. This year, the two day event will be held Saturday and Sunday September 20th and 21st from 12 noon to 5 pm. The festival will feature 17 galleries within a two block area in historic Lenox Village, showing work by more than 500 artists, as well as outdoor demonstrations and exhibits.

I will be set up at 71 Church Street in front of Firefly Restaurant. Stop by to visit and learn more about my process. I will have small paintings for sale as well as giclee prints.

In addition, I have a number of my large paintings in the Lenox Gallery of Fine Art, located at 69 Church Street. The Art Walk will take place rain or shine. If the weather is bad, I will be at the gallery to meet with people.
