SOLO Exhibition!! I have been invited to have an exhibition of my work at the Frostburg (MD) Museum from May, 19-June 14, 2012. There will be about 15 pieces. I'm calling it Fierce Winds as most of the work will be from that series. Grand opening on May 19; if you happen to be in western Maryland, please attend..
I'm tickled to have been invited to have a two-page spread in Best of Mixed Media 2011. It's a nicely printed art volume. They requested 4 specific pieces and asked for 6 more to choose among for the book. It will "drop" in about March of 2012. I will let everyone know when that happens.
