Thank you, Becky! Enjoy your new painting!

Mary Lou with Tamara Tomac, manager of Island Bookstore on Mackinac Island.
I met so many nice people at my book signing right before the Lilac Festival parade. Everyone was excited and dressed in their lilac finery!

Mary Lou signing copies of Mackinac Island Meditations after her book talk to members of the General Federation of Women's Clubs in East Tawas, Michigan.
Everyone had their own special story to tell me about why or for whom they were purchasing my book.
It was a delight to speak in my home town and a special treat to have my aunt and sister attend.

Mary Lou painting in front of Victorian Summer Gallery on beautiful Mackinac Island.
Having three works-in-progress gives the paint time to dry before adding the next of many layers. I love to paint where people can watch, ask questions, and share their own experiences with the artistic life.
