Upcoming Exhibit
The Old Chatham Country Store will be exhibiting my work for the month of October 2011 in their cafe gallery. The opening reception will be held on Sunday afternoon October 2nd from 3 to 5pm. A list of all the artists exhibiting in 2011 will be posted on their website as well as sample images of their work. Just visit http://oldchathamcountrystore.com/gallery.html
This will be my first one man exhibit in a very long time. I need to have at least 25 paintings, so I have a lot of work to do in preparation. I hope you can come in October.

Threads
CCCA's latest exhibit at their 209 Warren Street gallery which will run from January 22nd through March 11th is entitled "Threads". The show features artwork containing some element of fabric or fiber, real or illusion. Initially I thought, being an oil painter, I would not be able to participate. But then the word "illusion" caught my eye and I thought: "Isn't that what I do?" So I went on a search through my house for any articles that had to do with fabric, mending or sewing. My aim was to create a still life of these objects, as if someone was in the middle of a sewing project and was interrupted, and then paint them as realistically as possible. After trying many different arrangements I finally settled on this one. I thought it appropriate to name this painting "Threads" in harmony with the theme of the show. I am happy to announce that it was accepted and will be included in the show. The opening reception will be held on Saturday evening January 22nd from 5:00 to 7:00pm. I'm excitedly looking forward to see what the other artists came up with. I sure would like to see you there.
