Announcing the First Annual H-Anna-H Art and Photography Show



Hannah Galli (A very good friend of mine, and cousin by marriage. Not to mention an amazing photographer) and I are going to put on an art and photography show September 10-11. It will consist of our fine art and commission work that we have produced over the last couple of years. Most of it will be for sale. Also, we are going to have coupons for those interested in commissions, and lets not forget the GIVEAWAYS. (more details on the giveaways when it gets closer.) We're pretty excited, to put it lightly. We are most of all impatient to share with all of you our passion that we have shared for the last decade. Art truly is a beautiful thing, enriching lives, communicating across cultures and beliefs, a powerful way to touch others. We hope that our art can do this for you.










Here's a link to Hannah Galli inneri fine art photography. Check it out. You won't be disappointed.

Vella

Remember how dramatically I proclaimed I was going to paint? Well, I finally have some sort of evidence of that.

But on to more important things.

Meet Vella. This is my Grandmother-in-law. She is a beautiful woman full of kindness, knowledge, wisdom, and faith. On this 24th of July weekend, I declare her a pioneer in this trek of life. Her humility and dedication in transforming her way of life recently has inspired me to try to do that more in my life. I wanted to capture her legacy as her posterity will remember her from now on. I have always been impressed by her and I have been wanting to do this portrait for a long time. I hope you can catch her spirit and get to know her a little through this painting. You'd have to meet her to get the full effect though.

Happy Pioneer Day!
