We
hope June finds everyone ready for summer and all the good things
that come with it! We gave up the idea of a garden. Last year we
managed to at least put in some tomato plants. How hard could that
be? But I never have figured out exactly what
“suckers” are on a
tomato plant and so ours seem to grow…and grow and before
long we
have a huge plant and only a few tomatoes. And I think I know now
why my dad said to plant the rows wide enough to run the lawnmower
down .J I'm leaning
towards that method of planting the tomato plants in hay bales. I could
space
them wide enough for the riding lawnmower……

What’s
New in the Art
Studio
Theresa
has opened a second studio at
the Cotton
Company in downtown historic Wake Forest. She has been in
the area with studio space since 1991. Our large working studio is
right next to our house and it does not get any better than
that! However this new one is a perfect mix of gallery and convenience
for our portrait clients. Lovely historic site where there is
staff 7 days a week and shopping galore! A complete
series of our portraits are displayed there.
Check it out! |

Theresa is also
working on paintings for the Blowing Rock Charity Horse Show. The
painting on the left celebrates the American Saddlebred portion of the
show. She is currently working on a painting for the Hunter/Jumper phase of the show. |

NEW creative 100 paintings in a 100
days project is going strong. Collectors are buying and a
donation from each sale is made to Danny and Ron‘s Rescue! So
each lovely little 4 x 6 oil sold benefits this hard working
charity which has thus far found homes for over 1600 dogs since
Hurricane Katrina. These charming oils are available for just $100.00
to his collectors! A great gift idea. Original artwork that you can
always find a place for. Visit his 1Hundred

Barn of the Month  If you have been to a horse show in the Southeast, you have probably seen a long red golf cart full of dogs. Ron Danta and Danny Robertshaw of Beaver River Farms have been rescuing and finding homes for dogs since Hurricane Katrina. Check out their website and send a donation or better yet, adopt one of their dogs. |
