Sky Fell, Sun Followed 8" x 8" Oil on artists' board © 2012 Melinda S. EsparzaThe big run-up to next week's Tucson Artists' Open Studios tour is ON. I'm getting excited to see all of the kindhearted, funny, extremely intelligent people who'll be stopping by. I'm going to be giving a painting demo one or both of the days, in preparation for my Grand Canyon Artist-in-Residency. Whoo-hoo!
There's something else, too. If you would like to, please go to Melinda Esparza Artists Wanted and click 'Collect Me.' If there are enough people who do, I might just get some of my art flashing in Times Square. Wouldn't that be fun?
Here are some of the paintings you'll see at my studio during the Tucson Artists' Open Studios tour next week:
