Best of Wordwide Charcoal, Pastel & Pencil Artists Vol. II

I am so excited!  I have four pastel paintings being published in the Best of Worldwide Charcoal, Pastel & Pencil Artists Volume II.  It will be available for purchase soon and will be viewable online.  I'll post the link for it as soon as I have one.

This iris painting, titled "Lovely Ladies", 36x24, is one that will be in the book.  It is currently in the private collection  of pianist and composer Barry Tognolini.

Steinway Piano Galleries Exhibit

I am on my way to Atlanta to participate in a two person exhibit opening with fellow artist David Barranti.  We will share the stage with Barry Tognolini, the Australian concert pianist, and with Jason Mercado, who will do a poetry reading with music.  We will be presenting "Piano and Palette" from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Steinway Piano Galleries Recital Hall in Alpharetta on Saturday evening.  (5950 North Point Parkway, Alpharetta, GA 30022-3114, (770) 777-1300) This invitation-only event is a terrific way to welcome Spring 2010!!

Several of my newest paintings will be exhibited for the next two months, along with some more recent of my oil-stick paintings and even some pastels.  I love this pastel painting of irises that will be shown! (Lovely Ladies, 36x24 pastel)
