February is HOT for ART!

Snow might be in the forecast (maybe!) but this month is blazing HOT! February is not only Valentine’s month but it’s also full of some really wonderful art shows. The next few months for me are going to be really busy so I’ve been putting in overtime at the studio making lots of new works just for you. Come on out to a show and check them out, or visit my website and visit virtually if you can’t make it out in person.

February Art Shows

THIS WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY!

I have four main artworks as well as over 15 miniature paintings in this fantastic annual art show featuring over 100 juried artists in a variety of mediums. This is a cash and carry show, meaning artworks are sold off the walls as people purchase them so arrive earlier for best selection.

RSVP to my personal facebook event page.
