Ready for 2012Hoosier Salon .......


Every year I try to pay my membership dues to the Hoosier Salon which entitles me to pay my non refundable fee and submit two originals to the jury to see if I created something worthy of hanging in the show. There will be hundreds of entries and room for only a "few". Some years I have gotten in and some years .... I have not. But, I have painted two full sheet watercolor paintings that I am pleased with and no matter what the jury and judge (maybe) will say .... I am glad to have painted them! I will keep you posted on the results.

  1. I recognize the location of the first painting. You beat me to it! Both paintings are great. Good luck!
