Let Us In Already - SOLD

The dogs above belong to my stepdaughters and their mom. Maya, the star, proved very photogenic. Can you tell it's hot already here in Texas?

But not tonight. Tonight, for my party, the weather was perfect! Cool and dry. I gave my husband the task of taking pictures and unfortunately he took VERY few and only of just a few of our visitors (I mean, where am I, David?!), at the beginning of the evening. I guess he was too busy visiting. I want to thank all of you who came, and all who wrote wishing you could come. It means a lot to me to be surrounded by such kind, supportive folks. And no, this is not just the wine talking. : )

Jacob found this frog for me last spring right outside our Texas house, on a box I used for shipping. He sat still for a surprisingly long time while I took picture after picture. What a cutie.

Here are a few cows I photographed forever ago in Germany. The light was perfect! What I need to find is someone with cows here in Oregon. I would love to get out in a field with animals (any kind really) and take pictures all day. I've wanted to do this for a while.

Many thanks to those of you emailing me about workshops!! I appreciate the help.

I apologize for not posting more this week. Except really it wasn't my fault, it was my wild and crazy kids! They kept me out 'til all hours, every night. Making me play miniature golf and drink "pretty darn good" ice cream drinks (the rum made it pretty darn good!). So while they look awfully studious in these photos (below), they're actually quite devious:

The space here at the Peninsula School of Art was perfect. I have never been to a more well-organized school. The buildings and grounds are beautiful, the nearby towns are super cute, and all the restaurants are awesome! And no, no one is paying me to say this. : ) Below are my demos for the week (all sold):

And here are my latest kids - so cute but so baaaad. And I mean that in the very best way. : )
