Or, if you are not Catholic, my last blog posting. Mea Culpa but you’ll understand when I tell you it’s been crazy busy. Here’s what’s been going on:
Hung the Paige Simmons Salon and Gallery show November 2. Here’s what it looks like in the gorgeous renovated former Tennessee Art League building. Can you say beautiful light?
Hung the Smyrna show with assistance from my brother on November 18 but was really rushed and too busy to take pictures of the paintings hanging so in today’s blog post are a few photos of the paintings hanging there.
The very next day, we boarded a 6 a.m. flight to the UK and made it safely to London at 10:45 p.m. local time. For the next 11 days, we drove, and shot photos, and visited family and friends, and ate, drank, danced and really enjoyed ourselves. 
We returned home safely two nights ago and now, bags unpacked, laundry washed, bills paid, I can put down a few words.
I can’t wait to paint that which I photographed. I did paint one day in the hotel room when David was spending quality time alone with his dad, but the lighting was poor, the room was cold, and it was just a study of something I’ll do in acrylics later on, I think.
We had a wonderful, if freezing time, and have mixed feelings about being back. I’m glad, for my studio, friends and family here, but am already profoundly missing all those friends and family we love across the pond.
