The show will run June 26 – August 1 at Yavapai College’s Prescott Art Gallery, in Prescott, AZ. The gallery is hosting an opening reception Friday, June 26 5:00 – 7:00 PM.

“More Than A Line” invitational exhibit July 10 – September 25

I’m honored to be included in “More Than A Line”, an invitational exhibit of drawings in the city of Danville, CA’s Village Theatre Art Gallery July 10 – September 25. In their words, “Centered on the simple pencil, the exhibition explores how a single medium can produce an extraordinary range of styles, textures, and expression.” Seven of my originals will be on display! The opening reception is Friday, July 10, 5:30 – 7:30 PM. Learn more here: https://www.danville.ca.gov/227/Village-Theatre-Art-Gallery
