Mark Twain Library Show
Here are my entries for the Mark Twain Library Holiday Show. The opening reception is at 7 p.m. Friday, December 5. The show will run through Sunday, December 14.
The Library is on rte 53 in Redding, CT.
After Friends of Pam and David
Artists, there are roughly 20 paintings currently at Hartford Fine Art awaiting pick-up.
David Dunlop will be giving a gallery talk there on Saturday, Dec. 6, so you could pick up your work and attend the lecture. If you can't be there, maybe a friend would get it for you.
Hartford Fine Art has helped us tremendously with publicity and being a drop-off and pick-up point. We are very grateful for their support and want to be considerate, especially during this busy holiday time.
Please check the Contributing Artists List on this blog to look for missing names of donors who need to be included. We would like to thank them and post links to their web sites. We would also like to invite them to participate in future shows. Thanks.

Friends of Pam and David
Thank you to all the artists and collectors who made the Friends of Pam and David a great success. Your generosity and good wishes did a lot! The show raised approximately $4,000. We don't have a final accounting yet, but that was pretty amazing, especially on short notice.
There were over 120 works of art at the Vanilla Bean, after the early bird sale, where the walls normally display from 30 to 50 pieces. What a testament to how well-liked and respected Pam and David are. The sheer number of artists who cared enough to donate something moved them deeply. Pam and David were surprised to find that so many of us think about them, and will continue to keep them in our minds and prayers. In some ways, the moral support is more important than money.

North American Small Works Entry
On a totally different, rather humorous note, here is "Crazy," my painting that's in the North American Small Works Show.
The reception will be at The Greenwich Workshop Gallery in Fairfield, CT on Saturday, November 29.
The public can vote for their favorite paintings before Thursday by registering on line, and can bid for work on line, or use the lottery boxes at the gallery. Check the Small Works North America web site for details.
Some major artists have work in the show, so this should be an interesting experience.

Friends of Pam and David Cash and Carry Show
Hi everyone. We just finished hanging the benefit show at the Vanilla Bean Cafe in Pomfret. What a testament to how well liked Pam and David are! We have over 100 paintings, including one piece from someone in New Hampshire. Another artist, (Isham Martin) heard of the show locally, and walked into the Bean with a nice framed oil painting to add to our collection.
The paintings represent a variety of subjects in a wide assortment of sizes and styles.
If you're wondering what to do with those Thanksgiving house guests on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, take them to the Bean. It's a pretty drive and the food there is good. Shop fast....the show closes at 3:30 p.m., Monday, December 1.

Friends of Pam and David
We owe a big thank you to Hartford Fine Art and Framing for their support in publicizing the show and for allowing their store in East Hartford to serve as a collection point for many of the paintings. We really appreciate their total co-operation with our efforts.
Friends of Pam and David, Getting Closer!
We are fast approaching opening day of the Vanilla Bean Cash and Carry show... we will hang it after hours tomorrow (Tuesday).
Jen Holmes has been working feverishly and rounded up a slew of her paintings, so I've posted them here. Some of them still need dimensions, but you can see the images. Four are already sold.
If you want an early bird purchase on any of our offerings, jump in! The buying's fine.
Let me know, or contact Joan Jardine

More Images for Friends of Pam and David
We just received some more quality stuff to post: one 12 x 16 Oil from Jackie White and three photos from Leslie Jardine. We're getting an exciting assortment of subject matter and points of view. I love it. There is still time for artists to email me JPG files 220 pixels wide, for the blog.
Terry Oakes Bourret's Portland Boatyard piece sold hours after it was posted, in fact, there was nearly a duel over it. Thank goodness for email time stamps, and sorry, Alex. Who knew this would happen?
