It’s been quite a day setting up for tomorrow’s Simple Pleasures Show & Sale, but I think we’re ready to roll.
If you’re visiting the show in person, you’ll also find some additional bonus framed original works on show and offer.
The lemonade will be cold, the treats will be sweet, and the art chat fun.
Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.

What Will You Find At The Show?
- A series of 25+ 5×5 original ink & watercolor sketches in 6×6 stand up frames. They’re intended to sit on your bookshelf, side table or the corner of your desk or counter – & that’s exactly how you’ll find them displayed during the show.
Why This Theme?
- A lot of attention & energy is directed towards life’s big deals & grand adventures.
- It’s easy to overlook the simple pleasures to be found in the everyday events of our lives. These images remind us that small things can bring great joy.
What’s A Simple Pleasure?
- It’s an everyday experience that lifts your spirit & warms your heart.
- A fine cup of coffee, a blazing fire, a good book, fresh flowers, a friendly visit, a morning walk, & more.
Why March 20th?
- It’s the first day of spring – a time to celebrate beauty, fresh energy & new life.
- It’s also a perfectly timed offering if you’re looking for lo-cal (& local) Easter treats for yourself or others.
Why Small Treasures?
- Many people who collect original art tell me their walls are full, but their desire to acquire still burns strong.
- Most of us can find a corner in our lives for something small, new and affordable that delivers a spark of joy.
