Going Solo.

I have been DYING to share some exciting news with all of you and today is the day! My friend, Sara Cowan of Deluxe fame, is working for the Deep Fork group doing a number of awesome things, but specifically, she is curating art for their various restaurants. She contacted me to see if I’d be interested in doing a solo show at the Deep Fork Grill, and I said, “YES!” (Actually, I think I squeaked out an, “OHMIGAWWWWW!” and then said, “Why yes, thank you!” like a normal person.)

I am getting ready to hang a collection of 15 pieces at Green Bambino next week, so this will be my second collection hanging up in OKC and I couldn’t be more proud. I’m hard at work on lots of new larger pieces and I’m really looking forward to showing them off to Oklahoma City at the end of the month.

My collection will hang at Deep Fork from September 30th to November 18th. They will be holding an Artist Reception for me and all my friends on October 6th. It is open to the public and all you have to do is RSVP right here at the blog. I am also doing a special giveaway for my friends & fans who read my blog.
