And it just so happens that I am represented by one of their great galleries- <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wallyworkmangallery.com\/amy_guidry.lasso\" target=\"_blank\">Wally Workman Gallery<\/a>.  So this August, I will be in Austin for Wally Workman&#8217;s 30th Anniversary show.  This will be a huge show, so it&#8217;s a good thing the gallery is large itself.  All of the represented artists will be showing several new works.  Add that up and it&#8217;s colossal.  And let&#8217;s not forget- thirty years!  This speaks volumes in the art world where- unfortunately- many galleries don&#8217;t make it two years, much less thirty.  So in celebration, Wally Workman Gallery is having a show preview on August 5th in conjunction with First Thursday Artwalk.  The blowout party and opening reception will be held August 7th from 6-8pm.  And if you can&#8217;t make either of those evenings (or both!), the exhibit will be up through August 28th.<\/p>\n<p>As for me, I have been toiling away on a new piece to submit for the show.  It&#8217;s 3 feet long, so this is one of the biggest pieces I&#8217;ve done in this latest series of work.  I have included a sneak peek- just a small portion of the painting.  It&#8217;s not the best photo either since I took it myself.\u00a0 Haha. \u00a0  But it gives the basic idea&#8230; and of course I will be posting the painting in its entirety once it&#8217;s officially finished.  So in the meantime, if you&#8217;d like to see more of my work, be sure to visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.AmyGuidry.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.AmyGuidry.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I always enjoy my visits to Austin, Texas since there&#8217;s so much to do and so much to look at- it&#8217;s absolutely beautiful.
