Final Two Shows of 2017

The last two shows of 2017 are almost here. December 1,2 and 3 I will be at the Randy Brodnax and Friends Christmas Art Show at the Sons of Hermann Hall in Deep Ellum Dallas.

Studio Open House

The Cimarrona Studio will be open for visitors and guests to stop in for a refreshment and do a little shopping on Saturday December 20 from 10 – 5:00. I still have plenty of lovely hats, scarves and other warm goodies- and my friend Deborah Savarese will have her New Moon line of organic body care products there as well. I hope you can come by! The studio is located in the shop located behind 2400 Denison St. Denton TX 76201- look for the blue awning and the Cimarrona sign. Click here for a map.
