Here’s a sneak peek of a few of the things I’ve got in store for my exhibit next week at Crosstown Station in Kansas City. I will be displaying a series of 10 larger paper cuttings (16 x 20 inches) starting Nov. 4 and up through the month of November. There will be a get together at Crosstown Station on Friday, Nov. 6 from 6-7:30pm – anybody and everybody is welcome to stop by. I’d love to see you again or meet you for the first time. It should be a laid back nice start to a fun Friday evening in the Crossroads district of KC.

I’ve had a busy week getting ready for next weeks exhibit and organizing a few other things to come over the winter months. I did manage to get out on some old country roads and see the multi-colored trees before all the leaves blew off’em. Beautiful time of year around here… I think autumn shows off best what the midwest has to offer.

Also, hi to Duane and Jayne who do not use computers so they’ll never read this but make awesome rustic styled home decor and fixtures. They also run a carpentry & painting company called Homespun in their town of Downs, KS, during the time that they are not on the road hitting up arts & crafts fairs. If you’re around Downs and ever need a contractor – CALL THEM!! Some of the nicest, hardest working folks you’ll ever meet.
