This exhibition is a direct result of the Women Painting Women blog, which I helped to co-found, the subsequent 2010 exhibition of the same name at Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, SC and the painting retreat we called "On Expedition" that coincided with that initial exhibition of over 54 international artists. This time around, The Expedition & Beyond focuses on the work created and inspired by that week long retreat of a baker's dozen like minded artists. We will each exhibit one study that was painted on location as well as 2 works that were created in our studios after the retreat.
A beautiful catalog accompanies this exciting exhibition which not only shares all the paintings that will be on exhibit, but also includes stories and pictures from the retreat itself. With a lovely foreword by John O'Hern, American Art Collector, Santa Fe Editor, the very talented folks at Matter Deep Publishing have done a fantastic job. This catalog can be previewed and purchased by visiting HERE.
A preview video was also created by Matter Deep Publishing which you can view below:

Lastly, today I found a nice mention in Fine Art Connoisseur magazine's March-April 2012 issue. It is currently on newsstands.
If you are in the Alexandria, VA area on Friday April 13th we all hope you will be able to come to the Opening Reception between 6:30-9pm. Most of the artists (including yours truly) will be in attendance.
Excellent work! Congratulations!
