Sorry for not sending out an update in a more timely manner. I was waiting to get some information on my upcoming shows.
--News—
The past 1.5 months have been quite busy. I was finishing up a big commission and started what I am calling frame-a-palooza! I have two shows coming up and am trying to show a lot of pieces which have never been out of my studio. This means there is a lot to be framed.
For my show opening in 2 weeks at the Arlington Central Library I am showing 48 pieces from the one-a-(week)day series, 36 of these needed to be framed. That took me about 1.5 weeks, but I got them all framed and ready to go. I am really happy with how this show is shaping up. The show runs from 09.01.08 - 09.30.08 with a reception on Tuesday September 9 @ 7pm. I hope everyone can make it out.

The week after that I have my second September show opening in Brooklandville, MD at the Ward Center for the Arts at the St. Paul's School. This show will show works from the past and up to a piece finished last week - pieces both big and small. I am starting to get newer works I'll be displaying in this show into frames. This show runs from 09/08/08 - 10/10/08 with an artist lecture and reception on Tuesday October 7 @7:30.
Postcard | Directions
Another event on the calendar will be the Art Trunk show at DEKKA (1338 U Street, NW, 2nd floor) on Saturday August 6 from 3-7pm. I will be there along with most of the other DEKKA artists. We are all bringing some additional pieces and will be there to chat.
I did receive wonderful news this past week. I had an art show proposal accepted and was offered the opportunity to take over a new gallery. I will give out more details as I get them, but I now have this big show coming in March of next year.
--Recent artworks—
I finished the commissions on my plate. This took up a lot of time and I hope to get to show off one of them next month after it gets presented to its recipient. I am really proud of the final product.
