Forgot to post this yesterday . . . in honor of Black Friday . . . a little tease of several of the new works just completed for my offering of small works beginning on Monday morning. There will be twelve works offered both here and on my Facebook art page so if you are interested in one, email me, go to my Facebook art page, linked here in the listing on the right and comment for purchase or send a private message that you want the piece. The first person to contact me for purchase will be the owner. Good luck!

Two more small works accomplished for a total of five now. Two more to do this week, maybe three if time allows, and will be ready to post the first offering on Monday morning, December 2. I should post about 10 o'clock (Eastern time) and the first person to contact me for purchase will be the owner. The last time I did this, there were some disappointed buyers who just missed out. I imagine that there will be many checking the daily postings so if you think you might want one of the dozen works being offered this time around, best to get in there early with your offer to buy. I will be accepting Pay Pal payment or check once again and the offering prices will include Priority USPS Shipping to continental US destinations. Farther afield will require additional shipping charges depending upon where they might be headed.

First three of the new, small scale works for my "Twelve Days of Christmas" special offering which will begin in the first week of December are done and on the work table waiting for mats to be cut. Everything is on schedule and I hope to begin the offering on or shortly after December 2. Come back and check out these little gems.

Now that this year's Waterfowl Festival

has come and gone, and with no

other pressing engagements on my agenda for a bit,

I'm going to be offering another round of small works for sale at reduced pricing, ready to

be added to your collection or for gift giving.

As soon as I rid myself of my post-show manflu,

I'll be working on new, small works

and have them ready to go

in a couple of weeks.

This coming Sunday, November 10th, marks the closing day of this year's edition of The Woodson Art Museum's Birds in Art exhibition. It seems like just a couple weeks ago that I was being interviewed for the local TV station on Saturday morning after my presentation upon being honored with the Master Wildlife Artist medal for 2013. Time flies . . . but all good things must come to an end. And so, this is the last week to see my mini retrospective of 14 works that has hung in the Master's Gallery for the last two months. One of those works of mine will go on tour along with 59 other two and three dimensional works over the course of the next 12 months. The first stop will be the Heritage Center at the State Historical Society of North Dakota in Bismark from March 1 through the end of June of next year. The next stop on the tour will be the Steamboat Art Museum, Steamboat Springs, CO from July 19 through September 13 and then it moves on to the Michelson Museum of Art in Marshall, TX to hang there from November 4 (a year from today!) through the end of next year. If you are near any of these fine venues, make plans to see some fine art work throughout next year. My thanks again to The Woodson Art Museum for honoring my work this year. Thanks to, to one of my collectors, who loaned a work to the exhibition and took this photo, Mr. Dan Martin, who surprised me at the Friday evening dinner.

I'm pleased to announce my connection with Lovetts Gallery in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I'm happy to join the ranks of so many other, fine artists and sculptors whose works currently hang/reside in the gallery. If you are in the Tulsa area, stop in to see my work in person.
