Well, Would Ya Look At That!

Hey There!

We're now about a month into the year 2013, and so far I'd say it's going pretty well, wouldn't you? Some pretty exciting things are happening with the Davis & Blevins Gallery in the coming month of February. Take a look below to get a bit of an idea!

The Scottsdale Artists' School is holding many workshops in the coming month, and Donna Howell-Sickles will be teaching one of them!  Donna will be holding a weekend workshop on drawing the female figure on February 22-24. If you find yourself in the area the last weekend of February, I encourage you to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to learn from the best! All levels are welcome, though some drawing experience is encouraged.

Back to the beginning of the month: This Friday, February 1st, Donna is having a show at the National Ranching Heritage Center on the Texas Tech campus. This show is unique in that it is a retrospective look at Donna's career thus far. A whopping 40 years of art will be covered, though not every single piece will be shown (can you imagine how many walls that place would need?!), it is sure to be a really great look into the lifework thus far of Donna Howell-Sickles. She'll be giving a talk on Friday at 7 pm and the show begins the next day. I hope you will all attend this rare and exciting event! To hold you over until then, here are a few samples of Donna's works.

 "Like a Moth To a Flame"

 "Right On Target"

 "Postcard Cowgirl" (one of her earlier works)

This postcard was an early source of inspiration for Donna

So, make sure you clear your schedules for the first and last weekends of February, folks! Have a great week!

Until Next Time,

The Davis & Blevins Gallery Team
