Welcome to My Collectors Party Home Show 2025

Home Show 2025

Main and Upper Floor Videos

The Welcome to My Home Show 2025 video version is in four parts -- with some pretty wild amateur-level videos. Please view them on a desktop computer. Focus and color temperature vary (because we don't know what we are doing).

Despite the lack of skill of this team of videographers, I still think they are well worth viewing to give you a sense of the show. Minus the refreshments and mingling.

I hope you will freeze frames to get a better look.

Each year, Randy and I:

Rehang our entire home with my art -- all three floors
Decorate for the holidays -- to make our home sparkle
Number each piece with stickers
Make a list that takes you on a room-by-room home tour
Invite collectors to come enjoy the show however they wish during an 8-hour open house

We do have some more visitors before and after the open house but very soon after, paintings return to my studio in Great Falls and many go home with their new owners ... and there are lots of bare hooks all over. (They just did that.)

Photo Tour - In Progress

I'm not sure how much better the still photos can be this year ... but maybe a little bit.

You're Invited!

Here's your invitation to the online version of that open house. The list below can be used with the two videos and the home tour slideshow. I've added links to most of the titles below -- which gives more info on each piece, pricing and availability ... but if there's anything you are interested in knowing more about, email me at [email protected] or call/text at 703.403.7435

Prices quoted on my website include a frame as shown on photos and the videos and free shipping to the Continental US. NOTE: Prices are subject to change -- without notice. Follow the links to check availability and purchase. Applicable sales taxes additional. Some photos and links to come ... but I'm working on it.
