Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all!  This year's resolution is to be far better at posting on my blog!!  I have been especially negligent these last few months!!  The problem comes when all I want to do is paint.. but I do realize that I need to take time to keep my blog and website current.  So my resolution this year is to post at LEAST once a week... (also to lose weight, exercise more, not waste time.. etc)
I had taken a few small paintings to the Brandt Roberts Gallery in Columbus and have heard that they, along with "Bottlenecked" have found new homes so I took a just completed painting down on Tuesday called "On Edge"  24 x 48"



I'm also attaching an image of a new series Ive started.. this one is titled Awakening 48" x 60" more on this series soon!!

The Holiday Season in now upon us...

The Holiday Season in now upon us.....And with it comes all the hectics chaos!  But I am happy to say that it's all good craziness in my world!  Not that I have any of my holiday shopping done... but I have gotten some great news this week!

I am honored to have received 1st prize for guest artist in the Fall 2010 online Exhibition at the Perez Fine Art Galleries for my painting titled, 'Gettin' Steamed'.

And also this week, I found out that my entry into the Susan Kathleen Black foundation Art of The Blossom II has been accepted!  This show will start at the Naples Museum of Art and travel to several museums throughout the spring and summer.  I feel so honored to have my painting, 'Change of Season', accepted!  

And last, but not least, I have been painting several pieces for the small works show at the Brandt-Roberts Gallery in Columbus, OH this December.  I promise to post some later this week!



Two Openings at once!

"White rabbit, white rabbit"!  My mom has always said that first thing on the first day of every month for luck.. and today there are two events upon which I'd like to bestow that luck!  The first is the opening of the Invitational Still Life Group Show at the Elliott Fouts Gallery in Sacramento, CA.  There are some wonderful artists in the group and I am honored to have been invited to participate!   Below are my contributions to the show...

That's Life 48" x 48"

Red Marble 24" x 24"

And the second event is the opening of the new gallery in Columbus, The Brandt Roberts Gallery.  I am looking forward to a long and happy relationship with them!  Good luck to both galleries!
Have a great weekend!
