Beginning A New Special Commission

It's difficult at this stage, (first four colors), to decipher what my subject will become, but log in and you'll see this new original serigraph develop.
I can tell you now that my subject is the S & S Shoe Repair Shop on H. Street in Northeast, DC.
This is going to be a very nice image when it's completed, but it will take some time for you to be able to tell, because of the abstract nature of the
print initially.  I'll post as I print, as well as prepare for the Frederick Festival of the Arts this Saturday and Sunday,  June 4th & 5th.  The show takes place along the Carroll Creek (canal) in downtown Frederick.   Hope you can make it.

A Super Installation At Lindsay Cadillac

 I created a very special portfolio of photographs of new Cadillacs for Lindsay Cadillac.  The twenty eight images were printed in a 40 X 30 inch format on canvas and installed throughout the dealership.  It's very difficult, in this blog's small format, to experience the impact of these images, but I wanted you to see several.   The staff at the dealership, were all extremely helpful in facilitating my choices for the various sales offices and common spaces.
Additionally I installed a collection of my Washington, DC themed original serigraphs for some great color.

A Weekend At Arts in the Park, Richmond

Spent a very enjoyable weekend at Byrd Park selling my work and meeting
new friends as well as many longtime customers.  This was my 39th year
at Arts in the Park and as an "oldtimer" I must say I'm really enjoying myself.
The weather was picture perfect, (pun intended), and Mrs. Lovelace and her
staff did an incredible job of making sure the show ran flawlessly.  It's great
to participate in a show where the artists are treated with such respect and
kindness. (Not to mention the free donuts and coffee every morning.)
