This Autumn is going to be packed with great exhibitions and adventures for me. I am so looking forward to the coming crisp air because with it will come a flurry of activity. I am so happy to share with you that I will have my work included in several prestigious invitational exhibitions here in North Carolina as well as a group figurative show that is near and dear to my heart in Charleston, South Carolina.

First off, in September I will have three of my layered vellum drawings included in an exhibition titled Drawing Revisited at the Green Hill Center for North Carolina Art. The Opening Reception is September 10, 2010 5:30 - 7:30 and will continue through October 29th. "Drawing Revisited is a major survey of North Carolina artists working in a medium which in the digital age may appear to be a slow and intimate art form. Drawings from more than fifty artist, both renowned and newly notable will be on view. Over 200 works on paper in graphite, watercolor, artist's crayon, wash, charcoal and ink will attest to the ongoing vitality of drawing. Related programs will include lunchtime artist's talks, figure drawing workshops, and an audio tour for children and families." In fact, I have been asked to give an Artist's Lecture on my work on Wednesday, October 20th at 5:30. I will be presenting 'slides' of my work both painting and drawing. I am quite honored to also have been chosen as one of the artists whose image was reproduced for the invitation you see above.

If you are near Greensboro, I hope you will be able to join me for either the Opening Reception on September 10th or the Artist Lecture on October 20th.
