Anybody need a dinosaur painted on their cheek? Butterfly? Catfish? Flower? I'll be there with my face paints Saturday afternoon. Look for the guy with the b...lack hat. And don't forget to make a small donation to Bollinger County 4-H paint-for-a-cause and help us finish paint the big painting!! It's fun and easy, and you can be an artist for a minute even if you've never held a paint brush in your life.

Happenings at the St. Jude Children's Hospital Fundraiser at Bark's Plantation today.
Here's Muzzie! Do you see his heart? Who wants to ride in a wagon pulled ...by a beautiful team of mules? Elvis was in Bollinger County today! He passed out teddy bears and leis. Now you can say you've seen a squirrel pet a dog. A little fella had a cool fish painted on his cheek.
See MoreHere are some more photos from today's event. A hover fly, a lazy donkey sitting and eating grass/flowers, and a perfectly good helicopter from which a sky diver jumped.
Painted Wren Art Gallery will be closed tomorrow, September 10, so Barb and Aaron can participate at this event. Barb will be selling her goat milk soaps. Aaron will be face painting. They will also have their Alison BARBARON books for sale. See you at the Gallery again next Tuesday.

One of my recent pet portraits. These two dogs are very special, and I enjoyed capturing their personalities. This is another painting done in oil pastel under ...UV protective glass. Don't hesitate to message me if you or someone you know is interested in commissioning a painting of your own.
See MoreComing soon. Barb and Aaron will be participating at this event. We hope you'll drive out to Marble Hill to step back in time with the Rendezvous and visit the vendors' booths, see the community art display in the cabin basement.
Aaron and Barb will be participating in this event on Saturday. We'll have our books there, as well as Barb's soaps and Aaron will be face painting.
