Kirsten Gallery's 40th Anniversary Exhibition

I've been invited to participate in the Kirsten Gallery's 40th Anniversary Exhibition.  The show opens Sunday, May 20, with an artist reception from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., and ends July 1, 2012.  I plan to be at the reception, so if you're in the Seattle area, I hope you'll come!  For those of you not in the area, you'll be able to see the show online at the Kirsten Gallery's web site.  This is a small works show, so there will be lots of excellent, affordable art!  I'll have several pieces in the show.  Here is one of them:

Best of Show!!

My painting "Old Friend" won Best of Show at the Northwest Pastel Society 2011 Members' Exhibit!

The reception was very well attended (it was packed in there!), and I got to meet some people I have known online for a while but hadn't met in person, which is always fun!

There are many excellent paintings at the exhibit, but my favorite paintings of the show were by Sandy Byers, who won the NPS Director's Award for her painting "Symphony of Swans."  Take a look at these paintings online and you will see how beautiful they are, but it doesn't prepare you for how absolutely stunning they are in person.

If you can get to the Kirsten Gallery to see the show, it's definitely worth it!
