June 27 thru August 31, 2014: Returning to Laguna Beach to resume my exhibits at The Sawdust Art Festival: Booth 245. Showing my newest work on silk as well as my expansive collection of Limited Editions on Canvas, Artprints and Frames.
August 2013/ May 2014: Exhibiting at Barela Gallery Hawaii featuring my large contemporary mixed media oil paintings.
2013: Continuing our sabbatical in Hawaii, I am painting new, large textured oil paintings inspired by this vast and beautiful island. I am also continuing my painting on silk and exhibit my Southwestern Landscapes on silk at the fabulous Wild Holly Gallery in Carefree Arizona.
2012: My annual tour of fine art shows and exhibits ended with the grand finale at the Sawdust Festival in Laguna Beach. After 15 consecutive years of exhibiting David and I moved to The Island of Hawaii where we have slowed our pace down a little and are taking a break from the vigorous art show circuit we traveled.
