The Texas Stampede Show

Me at the Insight Gallery's Texas Stampede Show
Friday night was the reception at the Insight Gallery, in Fredericksburg, for the Texas Stampede Show. The show was held in the galleries new building and it is a beautiful space, more like a museum than a gallery. There is  enough space to really step back and look at the art. In fact there are benches in between the walls so you can sit down and admire the work. There was a great turnout as well as many great artists in attendance.I sold a sculpture during the reception and one earlier in the week.
I met a really wonderful artist that I was unfamiliar with, Gladys Roldan-de-Moras. She took the photo of me above holding one of my sculptures. I would advise all of my friends to check her website. She had two paintings in the gallery and sold them both before the start of the show.My favorite painting of hers, was of her daughter and neice in traditional hispanic dresses picking roses. It was just amazing.
