Natural Beavercreek Beauty
We’ve had a recent run-in with the local population of coyotes lately, so I was extremely happy to see this fawn again on Monday. The tragedy is that the coyotes got two of my best laying hens, right from under our noses.
I hope many of you will plan to visit me this weekend as I open my studio for Open Studios of Beavercreek. Visit the website for a map of studio locations, list of participating artists and more. Hours are Friday, Saturday, Sunday, June 10, 11, 12, 2011 from 10-4. I will have new artwork on display, prints, cards and refreshments. I’ll also be demonstrating my painting techniques for those interested.

I’m off to finish framing & setting up the displays in my studio!

So sad to hear about your poor hens 🙁 Those coyotes are very bold and behaving badly. We just saw one standing right outside our back porch in broad daylight!
Hope you are having a fun Open Studio weekend. It was good to see your Mom when she stopped by yesterday on the tour.

Hi Blenda… Yes they have been getting bolder & bolder. I’m hoping they won’t be back any time soon, but I’m sure they must have babies to feed too. Hope to get up to see your studio this weekend for a minute….
best, Ruth
