Got Juried into Beaverton Arts Mix! 2021

These three have been juried into the 2021 BAM! Art Show & Sale. COVID struck again, and the show is going to be virtual at https://www.beavertonoregon.gov/1269/Beaverton-Arts-Mix-Art-Show-Sale. The BAM! Art Show & Sale will be live for a little over 2 weeks, October 1-17.

There was real hope to do it live before Delta, but oh well! It’s still going to be pretty good, and I look forward to see new art by artists I already know and those whom I haven’t discovered yet.

“Improbable Dreams of a Tree” has been juried into the 2020 BAM! Virtual Show & Sale. COVID-19 pushed this one online too, and it’s good news considering that it could be just canceled.

There were 544 submissions this year, and the show has been made bigger than usual because there are no physical space constrains. I am so excited to see others’ creations, even though it will not be an in person experience!

The show will run for the entire month of October, 1-31, 2020.

“Fortitude” juried into the 2019 Beaverton Arts Mix!

I will also be volunteering that day 1:30 pm – 7 pm. Stop by whenever your schedule permits, it’s going to be a good show.

Dropped my “Fortitude” along with matted prints and greeting cards for the Beaverton Arts Mix! yesterday. It was so well organized that I was in and out in no time. Much appreciation goes to organizers and volunteers!

Picked up my remaining items from the Beaverton Art Mix! show today. I was on the fence about bringing so many of my horse drawings, not knowing how well they would be received there, but to my surprise most of them have been sold. Thank you, horse-loving people! Thank you everyone who came to see the show, to the Beaverton Arts Program people who organized the show so well, to all the volunteers who helped them! I would love to be a part of it next year.
