Amber at the Philadelphia Flower Show!

"Amber, Dreaming" oil on canvas 24 x 20 inches

I am thrilled to announce that my painting "Amber, Dreaming" is on display at the Philadelphia Flower Show. The piece is part of a venture to showcase the work of local art school students in this year's flower show. This year's show theme is "ARTiculture" and I was very honored that the PFS committee chose my piece.  16 PAFA students were selected in all and our pieces will be rotated: Amber is in the current grouping dates to view Friday 2/28 through 3/3.

n.b. Because of some family issues which took me out of state, I was not able to get in to see it hanging in person! Many many thanks to Cara Schmidt who stumbled upon it at the show and was intrigued enough to read the label and then realize her friend had painted it...what a lucky happenstance! She snapped a shot and posted it too so I got to see it in situ...you're so great Cara ♡  And huge thanks also to my lovely model, Amber, for allowing me to paint her and then show the piece! ♡♡  Here's the show photo:

Outdoor Painter article!

My friend Alex Tyng and I have reciprocal portraits in the Painters Painting section of Outdoor Painter! Outdoor Painter is the online version of Plein Air magazine. Both the paintings in the article (written by Steve Doherty) were done on the same trip, one year ago when Alex and I went on a "business trip" to Maine. Click each image to enlarge and read.

What a fun and fruitful trip that was! For a time at least, you can read the piece online by clicking here.
