Monday, October 1, 2012. The Old House, 24x18, Oil on Wood Panel, 2012. So let's do links, 'cause I know we'll always be together (obscure movie reference! Mostly farm talk (and cute animals! At The Painter's Farm on facebook. I have been kinda quiet there lately, but will be picking it back up now that everything else is set). Mostly art talk at Tracy Helgeson Art on facebook.

Tracy Helgeson: The Harrison Gallery
http://tracyhelgeson.blogspot.com/2008/08/harrison-gallery.html
Monday, August 18, 2008. Landscape Study #387, 4"x4" Oil on Panel, 2012. Ok So I just removed all the small paintings from this site. Seems like there should be an easier way to remove 52 posts than clicking on them one by one, but I am sure blogger has a good reason for making me do it that way;). However I have removed them for a good reason; many of them, along with about a hundred NEW ONES (yes people, I have been slaving away lately! Will be included in my upcoming solo show at The Harrison Gallery.

Saturday, April 7, 2012. The Painter's Farm LLC! Well, The Painter's Farm is really coming along here. It is now an LLC, there are tax ID numbers, a shitload of paperwork going on and don't even talk to me about taxes, exemptions, deductions and agricultural licensing procedures, yikes! Looking up towards the house:. The barn (well, technically it's a shed) is 12 x 18, kinda small but it's a good start for my goat herd:. The goats will have a GREAT view:. In the meantime we are slowly working on the fenc...

Tuesday, October 12, 2010. Barn Study #246, 6"x6" Oil on Panel, 2010. Last Friday I was cruising around on the internet looking for galleries and museums that really need to be learning all about moi and my fab work soon. Heh. I was checking out The Brattleboro Museum's website. And noticed that they were hosting a lecture by Wolf Kahn. Now, I have a long and checkered past with Mr. Kahn (I wrote about that here. We had an excellent dinner here. Other highlights from the talk:. Super glad to hear that!

Tracy Helgeson Art: April 2011
http://worksbytracy.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 19, 2011. Stella is a Sicilian Buttercup. It took me awhile to accept that what I was hearing from the oldster's chicken coop last winter was a rooster crowing. I was convinced that it was just the crowing from the hen house in the back of the house, bouncing off the hills that surround us. But finally I just couldn't ignore the distinctive sounds of a rooster's crow and the little chicken that suddenly looked like a beautiful rooster. StuStella, mid crow:. And so turns out that Stella.

Tracy Helgeson Art: February 2012
http://worksbytracy.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 20, 2012. Wait, Wait, I'm Still Here! Barn Study #500, 4"x4" Oil on Panel, 2012. Well, as you can see I have made a few changes around here! About time, I guess, right? I started this blog in February 2006 and wrote pretty regularly here until about a year ago when I began feeling quite burnt out writing about myself so much and not feeling like I had anything to say about anything else. Hard to imagine THAT if you know me and even I find it hard to believe, but it's true! So that's it f...

Tracy Helgeson Art: Goat "Issues" And Show Deadlines
http://worksbytracy.blogspot.com/2012/03/goat-issues-and-show-deadlines.html
Thursday, March 1, 2012. Goat "Issues" And Show Deadlines. As far as the cause of the miscarriage goes, I stressed for awhile that I might be a bad goat momma, but after doing a lot of reading and talking with my goat gurus, I felt better. None of the usual reasons for goats miscarrying seemed to apply here and we all decided it was probably just not a viable pregnancy. So I think I can go on with the goatkeeping. Please visit the gallery's website. OMG, goat miscarriage? 3/2/12, 5:28 AM. 3/5/12, 12:02 PM.

Tracy Helgeson Art: Drowning in a Sea of Cuteness
http://worksbytracy.blogspot.com/2012/03/drowning-in-sea-of-cuteness.html
Wednesday, March 14, 2012. Drowning in a Sea of Cuteness. Turns out the best way for me to avoid post show meltdowns, is to pick up 3 unbearably cute baby goats on the morning after the opening reception. But let me back up here. A few years ago I met Brent,. One half of The Fabulous Beekman Boys. And I arranged to pick them up on the weekend that my show would be opening. Barn Study#527, 4"x4" Oil on Panel, 2012. Bottle Study#532, 7"x5" Oil on Panel, 2012. And that's how we got Jonbonjovi:. I named them...
