Finally. . . .

the morning glory painting that I started working on weeks ago is just about done.   Now I am tired of it and am going to move on to other subject matter.      I am not even sure I like it. . . . . .but it is done (I think).

Alan's Debut

Saturday March 16 the Garrett Highland Pipes and Drums will be performing at 3 p.m. at the Mountain State Brewery in Mc Henry MD.   This will be Alan's debut as a drummer with the band.   About a year ago Alan decided that he wanted to learn to play the drums.   The Pipes and Drum group was offering classes.  So for the past year he has been practicing almost daily and will finally make an appearance.

Spring

For the first time in the 26 years we have lived in Bittinger, we have crocus blooming in March.   Unheard of!!   The birds are singing, the honeybees are buzzing and all is right with the world on this glorious spring day.
Behold the crocus!!!!

Color, color, color

The Garrett County Elementary School Art Show is on display at the Garrett County Arts Council Backroom and is colorful to say the least.  
  If you need a lift to your spirits go in and see it.   The show will be up through the month of March at 206 E Alder Street in Oakland, MD.   It is truly wonderful.

Garrett County Scenes

I am working on a series of small (8 x 10 matted and framed) paintings of Garrett County.     I have painted most of the scenes in the past but in different sizes, palatte, etc.  I am hoping to end up with 12-16 of these little guys.
So what is more "Garrett County " than the Casselman Bridge?
