Gallery Representation: Whitepines Studio - So happy to be represented by Whitepines Gallery. Many of my watercolors are now on display in their gallery including Concertos, Hangin' by a Thread 9, Threadbare, Sunrise Symmetry. Hope you can drop the gallery or view online; happy to meet you there.
Exhibits: Part of being an exhibiting artist is getting used to those very polite show entry rejection letters. Oh boy, here's a growth opportunity to continue to stay positive, find ways to improve, and most of all, to keep painting from the heart. So it is especially thrilling to see "Congratulations!..." Such was my good fortune this year: Concertos was juried into the Michigan Water Color Society's 2023 Exhibit (closes August 5th). Wall of Tears and Hangin' by a Thread 8 will be part of the Emerge juried exhibit at the Gutman Gallery from Aug 11-Sep 16, 2023. In January, I opened one of those emails and got the wonderful news that two of my paintings, Hangin' by a Thread 1&2 and First Snow were juried into the Rhode Island Watercolor Society's 'Winter Blues' exhibit. What a rewarding, encouraging year.
"Pop Art": The other exciting news is that my painting Rainy Road to Bryson City was juried into the 2023 Art Around Saline outdoor exhibit. A 4 x 6 foot print of Rainy Road will be hung outside of the McPherson Building (Ann Arbor St and W. Michigan Avenue). How exciting to see that piece in such a large format. Hope you can drop by and check it out. It will join my 2022 entry, Jellies, that is outside of Benny's Bakery. Maybe it's a good time to stop for a donut and check out the art scene in Saline.
Art Hop: Speaking of pop art, catch the Westside Art Hop. It's a strolling art show through Ann Arbor's westside neighborhoods. Residents host local artists on their porches, lawns, garages. Get your exercise, see some wonderful art, chat with local artists and your neighbors, even catch some music. Art Hop occurs twice a year in June and October. 80-90 artists show their work. I've loved doing the show in the past and attending it too. Give it a try if you haven't; come back and see what's new if you're a regular. The next art hop is October 21-22, 2023.
Stay tuned: Follow me on Instagram to see my latest work and art adventures.
