Two Decades of Selected Solo, Invitational & Juried Exhibitions and other stuff:
This month I will have been on this planet for 60 years. This comes as a surprise to many friends and family.
I have been actively exhibiting for 2 of those six decades. Oh, I was in art shows prior to 2001. But thereabouts, I decided to take my art from hobby to professional. That was the beginning of my American Bar Series of paintings of local dive bars.

You will notice a void of almost a decade, an absence of public art exhibitions. In 2011, Liz and I made a decision to radially relocate, to pick up roots from as far east coast as one could get to as far west as one could get without going to California.
It is very difficult for an artist to relocate across country, and continue life as normal. We made the move in 2012. And first order of business was creating a work space, as our house has no room for a studio, let alone two.
Within a few months, the decrepit shed on our property was transformed into a spacious 16’x24′ studio. I then had room and time to create. Almost all of my local bar paintings have sold, all without the benefit of a show. It took a fateful meeting of like minded artists in the East Valley to break the inertia of not exhibiting for several years.

Anyone in the business of art understands that it is much easier to get a show if you are known. Expect to see more shows added to this list in the near future.
