The artistic talent in our community is amazing. Here is a beeswax painting done by Lori Austill. I bought my first piece from her some time in the early 90′s. It’s a painting done on plaster and I still love it! I’m hoping Mark takes the hint and gifts me with this beeswax painting for my birthday!

Do you have a favorite local artist? Turn us on to them on our Facebook Fan Page #localart, or tweet us! Shout out to Zoo Cain!

Here’s hoping Mark visits loriaustill.com before August 25th!

Actually, I think I’m an even better comedienne than photographer. The reason I say this is because I just seem to have a knack for making people smile and look happy. Which comes in REAL handy as a photographer. Getting your subject to look as natural as possible can be difficult if you don’t get them to loosen up and show their natural side.
