Borrelli's Chestnut Hill Gallery & Frame Shoppe
I am pleased to announce that my artwork is now being represented by the prestigious Borrelli's Chestnut Hill Gallery in Philadelphia. I currently have six artworks in the gallery, which will also be a part of new artist group show at the gallery in February. Continue reading below for details.
Founded in 2005, Borrelli's Gallery features both traditional and contemporary art and gallery partnerships include such notable artists as HBO-featured artist Chuck Connelly; Nationally-acclaimed American realist, Neal Hughes; PAFA legend, Phil Cohn; Chestnut Hill favorites, Paul Rickert and John Lear; Local urban folk artist, Robert Arnosky; vibrant landscape painters Sandra Hoffman and Gail Bessette; expressive watercolorist Susannah Hart Thomer, and primal surrealist Alfred Ortega and latin folk artist, Marta Sanchez.
The gallery has several rooms, including the main gallery which features recent work by up to four artists with a new exhibit featured every two months.

The gallery is located in the heart of historic Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia at One East Gravers Lane right off of Germantown Avenue and amidst Gallery Row.

Touchstone Gallery
I recently met with Nancy Allen, the owner of Touchstone Gallery in Yardley, PA, (and wonderful artist in her own right) and was very impressed with this one-year-old contemporary venue. The space is filled with colorful modern art from a variety of artists in different mediums. Located in Bucks County, PA, the gallery currently has three of my paintings with them, with some more possibly to be featured there at a later date.
