What a nice party Keith and Barbara Dameron gave at Iberia Bank of Marco Island to introduce the public to "The Art of Banking." Keith removed the bank's artwork and replaced it with the work of nine local artists. Having worked with Keith on a number of art projects in the past, I was delighted to be included. Keith asked for our best work, and had the show hung by Nancy Garrison and Darlene Schultze of One Day Interiors.

In addition to the paintings on the wall Keith asked each artist to bring another painting to be placed around the room. The Bank looked fabulous, the food and music was terrific, and the guests were interested in the art and artists.

There were several sales as well. My painting, Lazy River, found a home with a couple who had been looking at it since I started it in the studio. Thanks, friends! Stop into Iberia Bank and take a look. Staff there is friendly and will welcome your visit.

I was sorry to miss the the Bras of Life auction at the Art League of Marco Island last night. My husband and I saw the show earlier in the day. What creativity! The bras were fabulous, with a lot of work in each clever piece. There may be a slide show of them up on the Art League's site soon. In addition, the new director was introduced. Can 't wait to meet her.
