Our daughter-in-law Cheri has asked me for a rooster painting for her new kitchen, and of course this delights my heart. So I’ve worked up some cockerels from which Cheri can choose. Meanwhile, as joyful as I am to be able to produce an abstract rooster, I do know the difference between the fun I have most every day in my studio and REAL ART.
Recently a friend who is a professional artist did portraits of my husband and me for a gallery show she will be doing this fall. The show consists of people in hats. Joe and I didn’t have to sit it out, because Janet works from photos which she takes with a state of the art camera.
You can see “Joe in a Winter Hat” and “Margaret in a Summer Hat” on Janet’s website. Just GOOGLE “Janet M. Roberts, Brookfield Wisconsin Artist”—and then click on “Gallery” from the menu on the home page. There you will find the real article! 🙂
