December 2007, Columbia, SC. These are a few of the many events happening locally. I am involved in all of these ones, in some way. Want to see some great art make a trip to the newest gallery in town on Lincoln St. beside Palmetto Stone and Interiors in Columbia SC in the ever popular Vista. Many artists have put up all new art work. Great viewing is now possible since the crowd of Vista Lights has faded away into a distant memory! Open until 9 PM on Thursday and Friday evenings, through the holiday season. Stop by!*
Thursday Dec. 6th Fourteen members of the Artists Round Table show art, sculpture, photography and jewelry at 1213 Lincoln St in the Vista, Columbia SC. On occasion Howard Hunt or one of the other artists will be demonstrating their work or just painting or drawing in the gallery. Fun!

All of the painters in Back Porch Painters have taken art lessons for many years with Ilona, who is the former ETV Television star of "Painting with Ilona. Lots of beautiful work on display. If you love impressionistic paintings, great clay work and (or) have been looking for a Palmetto Tree Sculpture, this is the gallery to see.

* I was in 5 NEW art shows in November, I went to 6 movies, painted 15 paintings and I managed to write over 30 blogs, the month literally flew by. It looks like December is heading in the same direction. Guess what though, I am finally changing out my old 1995 printer and upgrading. Can you believe it, instead of 2 minutes to print one page I will now get 30 pages a minute. I just can't imagine it! Wow, I may actually get a few extra minutes ...
It's all fun.
yours truly,
