So both Leon and I have been accepted into this juried exhibit at the studio 2 gallery.
It wasn’t hard, our friend and fellow artist Mo Scollan, (former gallery owner of the 2040 gallery), served as the guest curator.
If you have never been to this gallery check it out. It is on South Lamar, right next to yogayoga south and Holland photo. Tina Weitz runs the show over there and she is doing a great job.

The opening reception for this exhibit will be on Saturday, February 27th, 6:30-9:30pm.
There will also be a written word event at the gallery on Saturday, March 13th at 5pm.

This latest mandala is 30×30 inches, oil on wood.

I took a trip out to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center on Friday. I wanted to check out the exhibition space and meet Joseph Hammer. He is the individual who has invited me and is organizing the exhibit of my work out which will be presented there next winter.
While I was there I decided to search out new subjects for paintings. I was very excited about the pods I found. Pictured below is a buckeye pod with a few yummy brown-black seeds, and then the vibrant red mountain laurel seeds and pods. Its like a little treasure when you crack open the pods.
