Exquisite group show at Abel Contemporary Gallery

I will be exhibiting five sculptures at Abel Contemporary Gallery, in Belleville, WI, as part of their Exquisite show, running from July 28-September 10, 2017. The sculptures are all pieces I have not exhibited at the gallery before. The show will also be the debut of my paper doll piece, The Anatomy Lesson.

The works I will be exhibiting are: The Anatomy Lesson, Ossis Fateor Memoria, Beneath the Remnant Veil, The Ephemeral Knot, and To Stand Against in Witness.

From the Abel Contemporary Gallery announcement:
"Unabashedly beautiful, the objects in this exhibit showcase the work of artists who have refined their craft to a degree that can only be described as exquisite."
Other participating artists : Wilde, Schulte, Schoonover, Czechowski, Calderwood, S. Byers, Apgar, Abel.

I will be attending the opening reception on Friday, July 28th, 5-9 pm, and hope to see you there.

"Humankind" Exhibition at Foundry Art Centre

I will have two sculptural works in the upcoming Humankind juried exhibition at the Foundry Art Centre, in St. Charles, Missouri. The show will run from June 24 to August 5, 2016 with an opening on June 24, 2016 from 5:30 t 8:00. Having shown at the Centre before, I can say it is a great space with a very supportive staff. Special thanks to juror Eric Wieringa for selecting my submissions.

From the Foundry Website:
From the grace and beauty of the human figure to the personal detail of a portrait, Humankind aims to capture the human experience through the physical form. Humankind will explore not only depictions of the human body through traditional portrayals but also art that represents the human condition and the essentials of existence: emotions, mortality, struggles and triumphs among the myriad of experiences all of humankind encounters.
