The Studio's First Annual "Made in Wimberley" Art Show & Sale
SMCB Studio and Home in Wimberley, Texas
See photos from this event.

October 2007 is the 5th anniversary of our move to the Texas Hillcountry. The birth of "Etruscan Equine" a few short months after arriving in Wimberley marked the evolution of my sculpture from wood to bronze. Two years later, after the move to our new house on the Blanco river, my paintings have migrated to the world of bright and bold acrylic color. Come help celebrate the Wimberley lifestyle's influence with the studio's first annual combined show and sale of 2D and 3D works!
