Next month my painting "Drinking Happy Bird", will participate in the Conroe Art League National Invitational. Of 372 pieces entered from 31 states, I was selected as one of the 72 finalist. This is the first year I've entered this competition, but it sounds like a large show.

I was also fortunate enough this month to have a painting sell at McCormick Gallery. The sale was for my painting of The Rolling Stones, "Satisfaction" 45 single. Click the link to learn more - Satisfaction
​Happening in the studio, I'm currently working on a painting of a 1960's typewriter. It used to belong to my grandmother who purchased it new in the early 60's. There are many old typewriters from the last century, but not many have a modern, futuristic appearance like this one. Having recently come to admire mid-century modern design, I can't wait to finish this painting.
