Gallery Sign.

Greg and I made a new sign for our art gallery. I cut it out and Greg painted it. Now I will put a sealer on it and then install it in the front yard.

Light Controller

We purchased a light controller for this year's Live Nativity. It should help out a lot. In previous years our light guy had to run around plugging and unplugging lights. This year should be much easier now that we can control everything from one location.

Family Portrait!

This is a custom painting I am working on for a gentlemen in Addison. The painting is of he and his wife with their six grandchildren.

Nativity Planning!

Last Sunday we had a meeting to discuss ideas for this year's presentation. It went well. Now everyone is busy getting costumes ready for their part in the performance and planning the technical end of things.
