    unfinished ornament, detail

    Preparations are under way here at our house for the Christmas at Keeneland Arts Fair over in Lexington next Saturday and Sunday.

    Eighty-one artists will be there offering crafts from baskets to wood.

    A great place to do your Christmas shopping.

    Unfinished ornament, full view

    The unfinished turned ornament shown here is made with tree of heaven (bowl) and ash (finial). The carved spoon below is cherry.

    Look for TR at booth # 21. Visit his web page to see more of his work.

    Look also for Toni Menk at booth #3. Toni is not only a great designer of glass beadwork but also a fine poet and a fellow member of the Green River Writers.

    If you miss Christmas at Keeneland, TR will also have several pieces in the Third Annual Gallery & Gifts Holiday Market at the Scott County Arts & Cultural Center. The Gallery is located in the old jailer’s house, 117 North Water Street, Georgetown, Kentucky. The show opens on November 1 and will run through December 19. Gallery hours are 12 N to 4 pm, Tuesday through Saturdays, Sundays 1 to 4 pm.

    And you can always purchase his work at the Kentucky Artisan Center or Appalachian Fireside Gallery.

What I'm Doing...

  • Drizzle is a miserable word. The heavens lower, my mood is dour. A little spring and I would sing. The sun would turn me carefree as a bird. 1 day ago
  • I open the back door and the wren flies at shin level. Is she nesting on the porch? Our cats are old but not that old. 3 days ago
  • The dark spot high in the cherry swells like a lung, fanned wings, fanned tail, shrinks and resolves into a common grackle. 4 days ago
  • A great business of birds in the trees and on the grass. Spring is late and like Casey Jones they need to see those drivers roll. 5 days ago
