Painting in Progress and Show Announcement

Here's the progress of the second painting I'm doing for the Nevada Rock Art Foundation, click here for more painting details and progress. Following is the show announcement - please stop by and say "Hi" if you can!

Artists Co-Op of Reno is hosting the 5th Annual Rock Art Show to benefit the Nevada Rock Art Foundation. A percentage of all sales will help NRAF with their work in the conservation of Nevada's fragile rock art heritage through education, documentation, monitoring and protection.
Rock carvings called Petroglyphs and paintings called Pictographs were created by native ancestors. These drawings on stone provid an eloquent window to the past as they are important symbols to ancient cultures and need to be preserved and protected for future generations.
The artwork in the show will be paintings, photography, pottery, gourds, clothing, purses, silk scarves, weavings, metal sculpture, rock art soap, jewelry, paper sculpture, carved rock, etched glass, hand blown glass, walking sticks, baskets, flutes, collages, etc. 100 plus artists are supporting this benefit by creating images and interpretations of the ancient art of petroglyphs and pictographs through their art.
Opening Reception is Sunday, July 1, 2007 from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm Free to the public - everyone is welcome! ACR Gallery, 627 Mill St. Reno, NV 89502
775-322-8896 for more details!

"Lake Tahoe - View From the Edge"
6" x 8" Oil on Canvas

I've been invited to be a guest artist at ACR Gallery (known locally as the Artist's Co-Op Gallery of Reno) for the month of May. There will be an opening reception on Sunday May the 6th from 1-4. The gallery is located at 627 Mill Street just West of Wells Avenue. I will be featuring my 12 x 16 Tahoe and Truckee River pieces as well as my 6 x 8 Tahoe and Truckee River pieces, a couple of plein air pieces and some of my previous daily paintings. There's lots of great artwork there and if you have the time this would be an opportune time to visit the gallery. I hope to see you there!
