I'm very proud to announce that three of my pieces will be in the upcoming GreenHill Center for NC Art's Winter Show!  This is an invitational opportunity for me because ... well ... I'm not actually in North Carolina.  (The organization takes into account a few artists from outside their state who have been active within the state!  With a solo show last year at the Imperial Centre in Rocky Mount, NC, a couple of acceptances in juried NC shows, and representation at the Grovewood Gallery in Asheville ... well ... I've been active!)

Twice before, my work has been requested.  Twice before, my work sold in this highly anticipated annual event.  Steve and I have even gone to one of the openings.  It was a big deal!  I created these two In Box series piece especially for this event.

From my website, the committee selected this older work.  I'm very excited about that!  It means that someone actually is looking at my website!  Some days, I'm not so sure about this! LOL!
