The connection happened yesterday...I have been waiting to hear back from a close friend of mine for the past two months and finally caught her at home!

The events as far as local shows usually fills up quickly but I also needed enough room for the amount of work that Dottie has completed! (At least 150 that I know of) However, the Plant City Chamber of Commerce not only has the facilities and protection, it also has kitchen space to pull off an artists reception!!!

January 2, 2009 - January 31, 2009. The reception date will be announced at a later time!

Now, I must get on with my portrait...just wanted you all to hear the fabulous news!!! Kudos to Dottie!!!
