Back from Marfa.
Monday, February 18th, 2008After a week I have returned from my trip to Texas. I had a show at Galleri Urbane located in the West Texas town of Marfa (See previous post for more info on Marfa). I have many things to write about including more about Marfa, Big Bend National Park, Big Bend National Preserve, Silver City (NM), Fort Davis, javalina, deer, drug smuggling, Shafter (Texas), but since I just arrived home I will start off with a little bit about my show.
It was great to see my pieces all up at once. At my house there isn’t enough room to put them all up. I liked the way the colors played off of each other. Ree Willaford, the gallery owner, was able to sell 4 of the pieces before the show even opened, meaning that once again the Zuill (this is my last name) family will eat. Hurray!!!!
The opening went great. There were tons of people. Also, two very nice families loaned us their vacation homes for our stay which really helped us out.
I would also like to thank my friend Cecilia for letting us stay at her home in Silver City, New Mexico. I will talk about her more in a later blog.
Farewell to my Children
Friday, February 1st, 2008Well, it’s time to say farewell to my Children, ie my artwork. 20 oil paintings have left my studio and are heading to Galleri Urbane in Marfa, Tx. Now it’s time for, at the very least, a day or two of relaxation.
If you wish to see artwork for my upcoming show, click the category “oil paintings”.
Frosting

Sophie
Thursday, December 20th, 2007Here is another piece for my upcoming show in Marfa, Texas at Galleri Urbane. This piece is a portrait of a little girl at my best friends daycare. I just love this little girl. Her name is Sophie. She is always a bit shy when I first arrive at the daycare, so she won’t say “hi”, but will bring me articles of clothing. She also likes to make little marks on the patio with chaulk, then she does a couple little jumps. This is her version of hopscotch, which she sees the older girls doing.
