How Sad!

I picked up my painting Mammas at MoMA Tuesday from the West Valley Arts Museum. The museum is "Temporarily" closed. It needs more money to continue to operate. I am going to send a special donation to them. Won't you consider doing so also? They are currently trying to raise $150,000 to reorganize and restructure. If you would like to make a donation or have further questions please call the museum at 623-972-0635 or email kendra@wvam.org Thanks for your consideration.

Northern Arizona Watercolor Association

I just submitted my latest painting "Think Cool" to the Northern Arizona Watercolor Association for their Fall Experimental Exhibition. For “Think Cool” I used acrylic Ink on tissue/rice paper for the collage band, acrylic impressed with saran wrap, a band with incised tar gel, one with glass beads in acrylic; a crackle glaze over acrylic with a top glaze of pearlized tinting medium; Northern Lights are pearlized ink and pearlized medium. Whether or not this gets in the show it definitely makes me "think cool" while spending the hot summer in the Phoenix Valley!!
