A beginning of a great relationship...

Today we were able to meet with the fine folks at the Hartman Reserve for the first time.  This blog will cover the journey Doug Davis will experience during the next nine weeks.  Doug is the first artist to be chosen for the Artist-in Residence program at the Hartman Reserve.  What an honor!  I am Kathy his wife, who will keep you "posted."  Join us as he tries to capture the beauty and richness of the natural visual resources found here.

The visit included tours of the facilities and some brainstorming of ideas for this unique project.



The studio space included an artist table and easel donated by University Book and Supply.  The space is upstairs in the Gene and Betty Buckles Programming Center.   Doug also received $250 gift card to purchase supplies for the final artwork.


Many thanks for the gift basket of goodies and the warm welcome we received today.  



 Here is one of the cool shots he was able to capture today...he is always so busy catching that shot!

Look for our weekly blog entries...........................We will bee seeing you:)
