🔴 SOLD! "Table for Two" (30" x 40" acrylic on canvas) And 100% of the proceeds went to Art Of Life Charities (AOLC)! Please consider donating to this amazing cause helping others in critical need of things like housing, food, clothing, mental and physical wellness and more! As founder of this 501c3 nonprofit, it is very close to my heart. AOLC is in great need of funds right now and every single dollar helps. No donation is too small. Your donations are fully tax deductible. Thank you for your consideration!
P.S. It is extra special that Table for Two's forever home was a surprise gift to one of my wonderful student's parents and longtime supporter of AOLC, Allison James.

Saturday was such a beautiful night for the Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center Landmark Iconic American Views Artists' Reception and Exhibition in the Kay Daugherty Gallery. 70 works were chosen out of over 200 submissions. I was honored to have my piece "Crab Shack" in the show. Juror, Elizabeth T. Wilson, Head Registrar of the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service/Smithsonian Affiliates chose the artists' works. If you missed the reception, the show is on display until late September. See the full listing of artists in the show and more details here:
