This show called for audience participation with writing a Haiku based on the poppy image seen orinspired by the botanical impressions installation. The wall is filling up - it's really neat to see!
What a night - well attended - good people, good food, good energy - and good response!

Red at Flow - Photo by BurnsideThere's a great adventure awaiting you in Jim Thorpe - a one man museum, gallery and amazing local food restaurant called FLOW...... it's a flowing experience - you just gotta go to see what I mean.
Pitch Fork and Gerber before heading to MacDonald GalleryI'm excited about the show at College Misericordia, in Dallas, PA, which opened today. Showing with Nina and Skip in the main gallery with my works in a separate gallery gives the viewer a large range of what art is and can be. The 'installation' idea came by co-creating with curator Brian Beneditti who wanted the look of the space to feel like my actual studio - hence there is a rawness not ordinary seen in a gallery like setting. To not worry about framing was liberating..... like going without a certain under garment.....UPDATE: The show was featured as a "Best Bet" by the Times Leader Guide! www.timesleader.com/stories/best-bet,133617
Here's a sneak preview of a piece which will be exhibited at the MacDonald Gallery April 10- April 29 with the opening reception Saturday April 14 , 5:00-8:00pm. It's a shovel - to help dig to deeper levels.......
A local hospital is a little brighter for kids and staff due to the safari themed bus I recently finished. It's amazing the power of ART! It stimulates a smile..... it heals, it uplifts, it makes one ponder, it refreshes, it just helps to make one feel just a little better...... And that..... is a really good thing.
