CURRENT SHOW: I am certainly excited to announce my "Bonsai", carved and painted wood has been accepted into the Ekphrastic Competition. Poets will create original compositions inspired by the artwork in the exhibition. Located in New Bern, North Carolina, USA, this beautiful building, once a bank is now the Craven Arts Council and Gallery.   All the art in the exhibition was put in the vaults for safety before Hurricane Florence. Amazingly this building was not affected by the storm .The show is up through the month of October. A catalog of the show including the poetry will be available for purchase soon. https://www.cravenarts.org/ UP NEXT #1: I am honored to have my work "Out of the Blue" accepted into the Work in Wood exhibition in New Hope, Pennsylvania - Works in Wood honors the rich cultural heritage of Bucks County woodworking while celebrating the new visions of the contemporary artists who reside in our region and beyond.

Something to smile about...   I am pleased to introduce: "Personality Traits”   With names like Lovey, Modesty, Belligerent, Loyalty I actually giggled while I painted! Personality Traits are acrylic, ink and graphite on carved plywood. Each is sealed with a poly-acrylic finish. When my young nephews visited my studio we started playing with the scrap wood. We had so much fun I decided to follow through with our creative ideas.
