Yesterday I traveled to Bloomington, IL and had lunch with people I worked with in my corporate job. It was a fabulous time, so good to see everyone, meet new people, and simply enjoy conversation.
Friday I travel back to Bloomington. I will be speaking at the chapter PEO luncheon about my art and will be donating a ‘miniature painting of choice’ to the lucky winner of the raffle. Stay tuned…..
If you missed my radio show from Monday, I highly recommend taking the time to listen to the replay at http://www.kimmccool.com /radio. I spoke with Sally Evans, a jewelry designer and creativity coach. She shared some interesting insights in to her artistry and her work with people she coaches to lead a more inspiring life.
More later – Cheers!

I spent last week in Indianapolis at the World Organization of China Painters IN State Show. The show was amazing, so many people, so many activities – I loved it! I made some new friends, have several artists who will be featured on my radio talk show next year, and purchased some porcelain to paint (of course! :-0)
Now I’m unpacking and getting ready for my next adventure.
Cheers!

Today I’m preparing for the demonstration I’ll be giving at the IN WOCP State Convention this coming Friday (”How to Paint a Limoges Box in a Day”). I’ll also be selling some of my (blank) Limoges boxes in order to cut

This has been another wild and CRAZY week! On my radio show this past Monday, I interviewed an amazing young artist, Andrew Orr. He excels in many mediums – oils, watercolor and over glaze. If you missed his interview go to http://www.kimmccool.com/radio.htm and scroll to the bottom of the screen where you can listen to the replay.
I had a phone call I had won a drawing and the prize was a free photo shoot and select photos with our dogs. Well, handling ‘The Herd’ of three is a little overwhelming, so I got our ‘Dinky Dog’ groomed and she and I had our pictures taken together. She’s such a doll! I can hardly wait to see the proofs!
Today I continue to work on preparing for the portrait seminar I’m giving in Greenwood, IN. I’m so excited!!
Have a wonderful weekend – more next week! – Cheers!

This morning I demonstrated painting miniature portraits on porcelain to the ladies in my painting guild in Davenport, IA. We even had a guest come to see how I approach painting my minis! It was great – there were a lot of questions.
Hopefully more people will be interested in painting miniatures – or other things on porcelain….I’d be happy to help them!
Cheers!

Demo in Bradley, IL
Greetings!
I was fortunate to demonstrate painting miniature portraits on porcelain at the IL WOCP State Board meeting yesterday. I was able to see so many people I hadn’t seen in months – renewed friendships and made new friends. My mother rode with me and attended the luncheon and demo. I treasure the times we travel together – the day was bright and sunny – just a complete joy.

I spent the morning with a reporter from our local newspaper and their photographer. It was fun! I got so excited about talking about my artwork, I think I talked his ear off!! I can hardly wait to see the article. It should be in Sunday or Monday’s paper.
Next is a trip to Bradley, IL for a talk and demonstration – Saturday.
More later – Cheers!

This is going to be an exciting few days – this afternoon I’m appearing on KWQC’s “Paula Sands Live” show. I will be painting a miniature and talking about ‘art in minature’. I received the call from the producer of the show yesterday morning, it’s been a flurry of activity here to prepare!
