Recent honors at juried show in Swope Art Museum Education Center

Two of my three “Photography Creative” entries received 1st and 2nd place awards in the Wabash Valley Art Guild Spring Show May 5-13 in Swope Art Museum Education Center at Terre Haute.

Such an honor to have my work selected by juror Amy MacLennan, curator of Swope Art Museum!

Approaching Fear Head-On received 1st Place and Conversation Piece was awarded 2nd Place. I also entered Fireworks, a photography-based abstract on metal and floated off white acrylic version of the framed glossy image that was curated into Arts Illiana Gallery’s “Red” show in 2019.

Abstracts in Community Theatre of Terre Haute

I participated in a River City Art Association membership show March 10-12 and March 17-19 in Community Theatre of Terre Haute during the PG comedy, “Ripcord,” on CT’s main stage.

Twenty-two works in the Carolyn Toops Gallery in the CT lobby included my photography-based abstracts “Conversion Piece” and “Oppression.”

I created “Oppression” from my photograph of an iron spiral staircase in a lighthouse. “Conversation Piece” started out as a photograph of an old rotary telephone dial.
