“For the Love of Art” Exhibition at Austin Art Space

Love Of Art evite

I will be the guest artist at Austin Art Space during the “For the Love of Art” exhibition, which will be on view for most of the month of February.  🙂  I will be showing ten of my latest abstract paintings—all new work that has been created since late last fall.

I invite you to come out for the opening.  I will be there on Feb. 9th, 6-8pm, Austin Art Space.  If you’d like to meet me there during gallery hours on another day, just let me know.

The opening for the 33rd Annual AVAA Members Show had an great turnout tonight! It was crowded by the time we arrived, shortly after 7pm, and just kept getting more crowded while we were there. Hard to see the art, though, with so many people there. 🙂

The show continues through August 7th at Studio2 Gallery, 1700 S. Lamar, Suite 318, in the South Lamar Business Park. Hope you can get by before it closes. There’s lots of wonderful work there.

I just returned from helping hang the new AVAA members show.  It is going to be great!  There are so many wonderful pieces in this show, and the space—Studio2—is one of my favorites in Austin.  There are many very nice representational works, a wide variety of beautiful abstract pieces, and quite a few sculptures.

I’m showing one of my favorite recent paintings, and I love where they have it hung!

The opening is this Saturday, July 17th, from 6:30pm – 8:30pm.  The location is 1700 S. Lamar, Suite 318, in the South Lamar Business Park.  The show runs through August 7th.

Check the Studio2 website or the AVAA website for more information.

Quite a few of my friends came by, and I ran into several other people I knew from other venues. The music by the Atlantics was really good; there was plenty of wine and some great food.
