I have two pieces of art accepted into the 32nd Annual Juried Mountlake Terrace Art Show. Both are paintings of my beautiful mother, Jean Forte. The first is a painting of both my mom and dad when they were dating over 65 years ago. It's titled, Shoo Shoo Baby, after my father's airplane. The second piece is from an old black and white photo of my mom on the roof of my parent's apartment building. She was in a bathing suit. I changed the clothes and background to make her into a nightclub singer. It's titled, Sentimental Journey, after one of their favorite songs. I love painting my parents. They are both such wonderful people and quite easy on the eyes, if I say so myself.
October 2, 2010 is the Show Opening. There will be artist demos, a wine tasting event and silent auction from 6 - 9pm.
The address of the event is 23300 58th Ave W, Mountlake Terrace, WA. Come if you can. I'd love to see you there. It will be fun. Cheers!

That is very cool Patty! Katie got engaged to her Marine last night. She really loves that first painting of yours :0)
ReplyDeleteHi Ellen,
ReplyDeleteI never get on here cuz I'm kinda dorky when it comes to computer stuff. So...I just read about Katie's engagement tonight (10/30/10)
I'm so happy for her. Pls tell her, "Congratulations" from me. You must be so excited.
How soon is the wedding?
XOXO, Patty
