Wow - I actually have all my orders completed and still a couple days before Christmas! ;) Glad I took the time and went down to talk to people at my Keep Austin Bizarre consignment booth and spent time with artist friends :D Leaving Friday to be with family in Abilene then Gardendale Texas. Time to relax, and plan for 2010.

If you have a last minute xmas gift need, please let me know! :)

Nice weekend with 59 other artists on the beautiful grounds at Laguna Gloria in West-Central Austin. Cool but sunny on Saturday and overcast-drizzly on Sunday. Crowds pretty lite but good clientele :) Especially enjoyed visiting with my neighbors. Thanks to everyone who came out!

Trying out FedEx home delivery for all my holiday orders and so far great, Just started shipping with them Friday after Thanksgiving and a couple large canvas’ are already hanging on the wall. So nice to hear packages were waiting on clients when they returned from Thanksgiving (instead of damaged or lost: USPS & UPS).

11 orders out to 8 states: The FedEx pickup guys just come and grab the packages - two batches so far: one Friday and the second went out today (Tuesday). I’m having a great time tracking them with the FedEx tracking software & calling people that the system says were delivered to today! :) I have a nice desktop app that shows a collapsible list of the shipments by delivery day…

Caught up on all orders through Nov 18 - all are shipped out and should arrive this week or awaiting pickup. Currently working on orders from Austin Junior League and those placed over the phone & in studio last week.
