Wrapping Up 2021

This is a sweet way to wrap up the year. I’m pleased to share with you that I have a piece, Untitled #4 (black), in the Los Angeles Art Association Open Show 2021 exhibition. This highly competitive, juried exhibition was open to emerging artists across the United States. The juror for this exhibition was the renowned art critic Peter Frank. My abstract painting represents the view from the studio window on a dark, rainy day. Here are more details:

Open Show 2021 reception at Gallery 825
Saturday, December 11, 2021
Hours of the reception are 10am to 5pm
(I should be at the gallery around 10-ish.)
Exhibition is up from December 11, 2021 to January 7, 2022.
Gallery 825 is located at 825 N. La Cienega, West Hollywood, and will also be open by appointment for in-person viewing.

With the holidays in full swing with Santa Claus parades and parties, it’s a great time to support the arts with either donations, purchase of a hand-crafted art gift or your favorite art-oriented charity. This year, I purchased fun sets of colorful pens for children age 4+ for Toys for Tots drive. I’m always concerned about budget cuts in the arts education so this seems like a good way to stimulate the creative interest.

Art Workshops are scheduled for 2022, including creative sketchbook workshop, collage and encaustic. Let me know if you’re interested. Also, I have already lined up a group exhibition for February. More information coming soon.

Thank you for your ongoing support, friendship and partnership. I couldn’t do this without you.
