Art on Main - Convergence

Art on Main – Convergence Exhibition

I’m particularly fond of observing the journey of people, objects and experiences over time. 

A variety of events transpired over a period of years for just the right moment of convergence to happen.  Then the spark of creativity was ignited, and the artwork was created. Continue reading Art on Main – Convergence Exhibition

Fly on the Wall - Visual Art League of Lewisville

Fly on the Wall at the Visual Art League of Lewisville

I didn’t plan to buy art when I joined the Visual Art League of Lewisville.  But there are moments – magical moments when you find “the one”.  It’s glaringly obvious the art belongs to you.  You see it.  Then you declare it emphatically:  “it’s mine.”  Continue reading Fly on the Wall at the Visual Art League of Lewisville

Find Solace in the Little Things

Pilot Point Coffee House Art Exhibition: I have a duck, doll legs and a dog on display!

It’s a mad world when my art is scattered around the metroplex in various art exhibits. I am grateful to have these opportunities that have all originated from a decision to join the Visual Art League of Lewisville (VAL). By attending VAL meetings, I met guest speaker, Justine Wollaston Scott, who organizes art exhibits at the Pilot Point Coffee House (among her many talents!)

A selection of my art is on display in Justine’s latest exhibit, “Autumn’s Palette” at the Pilot Point Coffee House, starting September 29th – mid-November. Continue reading Pilot Point Coffee House Art Exhibition: I have a duck, doll legs and a dog on display!

Friendships, connections and opportunities abound when you join an art league. Justine Wollaston was a guest speaker at the Visual Art League of Lewisville a few years ago and from that moment I became a fan and a friend!

Fast forward and she is the curator for art exhibits held throughout the year at the Pilot Point Coffee House (PPCH).  From August 4 – September 18th, you can see a wonderful mix of photographs by talented local artists.  Continue reading Photography Exhibit at the Pilot Point Coffee House!

Fresh Ideas - Inexplicable

The influence of art exhibitions on the creation of “Inexplicable,” Part 4

However, it is worth mentioning, additional influence stemmed from The Warehouse, in Addison, Texas. I am grateful Howard and Cindy Rachofsky make this venue, featuring their private collection, open to the public. Without multiple experiences at this venue, “Inexplicable” would not have been realized. Continue reading The influence of art exhibitions on the creation of “Inexplicable,” Part 4

Inexplicable

Part 2 & 3: “Inexplicable” is made possible by the following people…

A favorite aspect of my art is incorporating objects that people give me.  They become part of the art piece just as much as the component they contributed.  Additionally, people teach me new skills and lend me tools to apply to my art pieces. 

This art piece incorporates materials / techniques from 8+ people, a new world record! Continue reading Part 2 & 3: “Inexplicable” is made possible by the following people…

Inexplicable

“Inexplicable” is on display at the Lewisville Grand Theater, Part 1

Fresh Ideas 2023 is a juried event through the Visual Art League of Lewisville (VAL).  It is the only event that accepts submissions from members AND non-members.  There is no guarantee that you’ll get in as a member.  Every year the number of submissions increases – this year there were over 300 submissions and about 20% made the cut. 

My art, “Inexplicable” is one of them! Continue reading “Inexplicable” is on display at the Lewisville Grand Theater, Part 1
