Personal Structures - ON VIEW NOW THROUGH NOVEMBER 2024
I am proud to be exhibiting my work “Passage” as a part of the Personal Structures Exhibition, “Beyond Boundaries”. Please stop by if you are in Venice! and tag me in your post.
A New Painting to Celebrate Summer!
It has been a joy being here in France! In March, I went to Venice to oversee the installation of my work for Personal Structures–Beyond Boundaries. I was thrilled to work with the ECC (European Cultural Center) and went back for the opening in mid/late April which was in conjunction with La Biennale–Foreigners Everywhere. Quite simply —an extraordinary experience!
Here in Provence this Spring, we’ve witnessed major flooding and rains. In the painting above, I incorporated the concept of rejuvenation, which seems to be a common theme in my work. I hope you like it!
If you are in Venice, visit my work at Palazzo Mora. It is an honor to be a part of this exhibition. See below.

Wow! What a whirlwind getting ready for Personal Structures, the 7th Biennial exhibition by the European Cultural Center in Venice. It opens April 20th!
I was relieved that all of my artwork made it safely to France. In France I made sure the canvases stretched properly on their new stretcher bars, then rolled them up and drive them to Venice. It was a fantastic drive over the alps, and then, I arrived at one of the most beautiful cities in the world!
