You know how it is when you live in the same neighborhood as someone, where you see them on occasion, but never have the opportunity to meet? Well that all changed at a Zach Brown concert, October A spark was ignited and the rest is history! I know! You want details… photos… right? There are so many fabulous photographs of their wedding, it was difficult to narrow it down! The proposal was too romantic! How sweet was that? Shannon drew the oak tree with a tiny star hidden in it, which was used for the letter pressed invitation. Betty had it framed for her, what a special keepsake! The wedding day… there was a chance of rain was in the forecast, but everything turned out beautifully! Family members of both the bride and groom were part of the wedding. Too sweet!

We learned the names of some of the QVC and HSN employees who were swept out in the layoff massacre on Tuesday, and they are some very familiar faces. Gracie was at QVC for nearly two decades. Hughes was at QVC for 33 years. Smith was at HSN for nearly 30 years. Fox was there for nine years. We just learned about her and updated this blog. All three ex-hosts posted the news of their departures on Facebook, very graciously.

The year brought us new family members Shannon married Clay in April , new inspirations through travel Colorado, California, the Caribbean, and more , and new friends of the gallery. To all of our friends both new and old: We thank you for all of your support throughout the year. Hint: That may just be her in the painting. Happy Fall! They love to paint the amazing fall light that seems to be so much more vivid. That wonderful light coupled with the dramatic skies this time of year make for some fabulous paintings! Autumn is a favorite time of year for many, this painting shows the brilliant color and shadows that we all look forward to each year… so nice! The October Skies show was one to remember! Oyster season begins!
