Oh Baby!

Well, our little man turned one recently. Beau is our fourth and final kiddo!!....really....final....really! He has brought much joy (and hard work) but mostly joy. I am acutely aware that every day I get to spend with my kids is precious and not to take a single day for granted. We love you Beau!

Beach Trip

Ok, so this is a little late....well, not that late I guess. We went to the beach over Fall Break which was early October. I've been without a computer for months and just now got a new one which means I'm just now able to post pics. Let me just say that I got TONS of inspiration while we were there!!! We stayed in Destin but traveled to Seaside and Rosemary Beach two days in a row....can we say LOVE? I admit I've never been down that way and never understood what all the hoop-la was about....I know now! I can't wait to go back and stay in Seaside with the kiddos. If anyone has any suggestions on where to stay just holler! Here are some pics of our exploration and some pieces I did as soon as we got back. See ya soon! Katie

St. George's Art Show

Earlier this month I had the privilege of participating in the St. George's Art Show at the high school campus on Houston Levee. SOOOO FUN!! I loved being there, surrounded by artists, art, food and my hot date of course! I loved actually getting to meet the people who bought my pieces and talk to them and find out where my babies will be hanging in their homes! It's not everyday I can meet the people who are admiring my work. It's quite humbling. I will always feel gratitude towards all those who compliment my work and push me to keep producing!
It's a very well run show and I hope I will be able to participate in it again next year!! See you soon! Katie

Where have you been?

That's what I feel like asking myself!! Where HAVE I been?? Busy....doing shows....going crazy. Recently I had the honor of attending my daughter's very first horse show. She got 5th place in her age and division...I was proud of my little equestrian. Not only was it a sweet little show it also served as an abundance of inspiration!!! And everyone knows... I look for inspiration EVERYWHERE!!!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE to draw inspiration from my life and not just pulling ideas out of the blue. I have really been into horses lately....wonder why?? The piece above is called "Grazing Before the Show" and is 48x48. It's currently hanging in my house...one day soon I'll be able to part with it. :) See ya soon...for real this time!! Katie
