8th Annual Winesburg Classic Art Show

A Summer Celebration of the Arts in Holmes County. Hope to see you there August 15th 2015 Winesburg Ohio along main street State Route 62

Time Out

Haven't been here in a while! Daily pressures, creating, living,working,paying bills, the list is endless. I hope you can juggle it better than I. Another summer is upon us and the season flies by. Press on towards your goals. Better times are around the corner. Have a Great Summer! Will touch base sooner.

Illuminated Path

I have been away from all things involving the internet and posting and promoting most of my art since May. My wife and I have been in a state of transition. Moving is a major ordeal, and we have experienced it 4 times in 4 years. Yikes!  Finally in an organized studio. Great feeling to be back to it, with the winter just about upon us, it will be an asset. Keep those brushes flowing. Hope to be blogging again soon.

Have been extremely busy this summer. Shows and painting have been prominent in my schedule. I have been accepted into the annual Ohio Watercolor Show which also established me as a signature  artist for Ohio Watercolor Society. I have a show at Heartland Point in Orrville Ohio. I was displayed at Beechwood Public Library for the month of August.
  Wayne Center for the Arts is having a show featuring The local Watercolor Guild.

 Artistic Alley in Berlin Ohio will be hosting a meet and greet the artist on October 5th in the evening, featuring my art. If you get a chance stop in .

Summer, the busiest time for me and my creativity. Workshops are in abundance as well as art shows.

I have been painting every day. My website www.roberthvannatta.com was in need of lots attention. I had to find a new hosting service, and make some changes to e-mail controls. Looking forward to continued creativity now that details are worked out and done. If you are in the area of Winesburg Ohio on August 18th we  will be having our annual Classic Art Show, we are hoping for a great turn out.

Another year gone?

I can't believe the year is just about over. Christmas is upon us. Life is good. We can create art. My expectations are greater for the next year, as they should be. I hope for more teaching possibilities along the way, more sales and more growth in my paintings. I am hoping to do a few more art sale shows along the way, and hope that i can get accepted into some national shows to increase my visibility among all the other artists trying to do likewise. Keep the faith. Sincerely, Rob

Life as a Painter

Life has been consuming my time lately. It seems like I have been in the moving process for over 2 years. My wife and I moved about 14 months ago, from one home to a rental property. It was a great place, but just about the time we started to settle into it, the house was sold. Found a better place now and have just gotten organized into it. Painting has taken a minor detour for a short time, but have managed to continue teaching several classes along the way. I am hoping to expand the class size this summer to all the time. Lots of workshops too! Hope to see you soon.
