Exhibit

"Bittersweet Door"
12" x 9"
$375

I'm pleased to announce that my painting "Bittersweet Door" was juried into the Concord Art Association's Frances N. Roddy Open Competition. The exhibit will run from September 13th to October 14th.  As many of you know, when you enter a show you just never know what the outcome will be.  While I entered two pieces (the second entry is shown below) I felt that this one was definitely the stronger piece . . . but you still have no idea whether the jury will share your vision.  I'm grateful to be included at all.

So if you are in the area of Concord, MA or looking for a great historical day-trip with the kids, take a drive to Concord and while you're there check out the exhibit.  More information about the show can be found by visiting www.concordart.org and additional information on what to do in Concord can be found by clicking here.

NEWS!

"Bittersweet Door"
9" x 11"
$375

I recently received word that "Bittersweet Door" was juried into the New England Watercolor Society's (NEWS) 13th Biennial Open Show.  This year's show is being held at the Attleboro Arts Museum in Attleboro, MA, April 19th - May 12th.  If you are in the area, check it out . . . it's always a really terrific show.

As for my absence this past week . . . I spent most of the week getting our taxes ready for the accountant, re-organizing my business records and working on my resume and artist statement. What probably should have taken me 1/2 the time, actually doubled as I am a neurotic, obsessive compulsive nerd! Can I even say how much I love Staples? I have always had a love affair with office supplies and forms. So while the work was tedious, I must admit I loved making all new forms, streamlining my records while spread-sheeting, hole-punching, and three-ring binding everything to my heart's content! How sick is that? I did take a time-out on Wednesday though, to attend a demonstration at the Concord Art Association. SO INSPIRING!  However, I will have to blog about it tomorrow as I just got back from a birthday luncheon for my "little" brother who just turned 40 and now am only in the mood to lie on the couch and veg after eating the world's largest hamburger. However for your enjoyment here's a little video from this afternoon's party.  



Ok, so maybe I lied.  But this clip from Arrested Development just kills me!
