Solo Exhibition Opening at PHCC

High Spirits, 12 x 26", 21 x 23" framed, $2000

I have a solo show, “Water’s Edge” opening on August 27 at the Alric C.T. Pottberg Library at Pasco Hernando Community College, on their New Port Richey (FL) campus. 46 of the 47 pieces in this show feature water in some natural form. The colored pencil pieces are mostly views of Florida beaches but the show also features a group of plein air paintings of lakes, river, marshes and the gulf. In addition, there are a handful of miniatures in colored pencil — it’s one of those that’s without water, a portrait of family members at a parade.

The opening reception, hosted by the college, is Thursday, August 27, 3 – 7 PM. (Although if you want to see me, get there before 6, as I have to leave early for a class at 7!) The show remains on view until September 19; regular viewing hours are 9 – 8, Mon – Thurs, and 9 – 3:30, Fri – Sat. Private viewing and tours can be arranged by calling 727-816-3229.
