Most of my paintings are complete for my upcoming solo show at Three Stones Gallery opening Wednesday, November 25 until Sunday December 30^th.  A reception will take place Saturday, December 5^th at 6-8 PM 

I am excited to be showing all new paintings created this year.  Some were completed in Maine and some back here in my studio.  There will be 13 – 16 paintings on the wall from 8 x 8 to 42 x 42-inch works on panels and paper. 

Please join me Saturday, December 5^th at 6 PM at 32 Main Street, Concord, MA

I am showing three manipulated Polaroids in the 3^rd Annual Alternative Photography Exhibit at Gallery X in New Bedford, MA.  The show runs from 10/28 – 11/28 with a reception on Saturday, 11/7 @ 5-8 PM.  I love working with Polaroid film, as it offers a chance to play, experiment and create new imagery.  It is almost painterly!  My Polaroids are archival pigment prints taken from scanning the Polaroid film.  Each image is 6 x 6 framed in a 10 x 10 Nielsen graphite metal frame with 8 ply archival mat.  Gallery hours are Wednesday to Friday 11 – 4 PM & Saturday/Sunday 12 – 3 PM at 169 William Street in New Bedford, MA.

Today, I delivered three smaller works on paper to Three Stones Gallery since two larger works have just sold.  These new ones are 12 x 9 cold wax, oil and pigment stick/paper framed measuring 19 x 16 with my favorite Nielsen graphite metal frame, 8 ply mat and UV non-reflective glass. 

I received a call from Three Stones Gallery today.  Good news they had sold another painting – Sunday Afternoons.  Thank you Team Three Stones!  This painting is cold wax, oil, pigment stick, graphite and crayon on paper in a Nielsen graphite metal frame measuring 30 x 24. I always use 8-ply archival mats and backing board along with UV – non-reflective Plexiglass. 

“Do I have more work was the next question?”  Luckily, I had framed three smaller paintings destined for my December solo show ready to go. 

Three Stones Gallery reception on Saturday night was packed!  It was a wonderful night to see friends and family there and meet the other artists exhibiting.  I was surprised to see a red dot already on a painting upon arrival at 6 PM.  Thank you, Three Stones Gallery, for finding a new home for this new painting: Ripples of Time!

Today is drop off day for my gallery Three Stones in Concord, MA.  I am taking four new paintings recently framed for the upcoming Unfurling exhibit.  This show will run from 10/15 – 11/22.  The reception is Saturday, October 24^th from 6-8 PM.  Please stop in for the art, artists, tasty bites and refreshing drinks at 32 Main Street, Concord, MA.

Exciting news landed in my email inbox this morning.  I made the Top 50 Critical Mass 2026 based on my Unearthing an Insane Past photography project.  This is a first for me and something I never thought possible.  It was an honor to make the Top 200 Critical Mass this summer.  To make the Top 50 is a dream!

My deep gratitude to all the jurors!

This summer in Maine was where I completed a lot of paintings. I was able to set up in the basement of our rental. Friends and families thought I was crazy to be on the coast yet painting in a cellar. But I had the view of the water, could watch the tides, no wind, sun or bugs to deal with and work got done.

I received the exciting news on the morning of August 10^th that my series, Unearthing an Insane Past, has been invited to be part of Critical Mass Top 200!  This is a first for me and such an honor to have this work selected.  I also love seeing many friends’ names on the list.  We all go on to the next round where they will choose the Top 50. 

Jessica Roscio, Director and Curator of the Danforth Museum in Framingham, MA, is the juror for the New England Collective XVI, regional juried exhibition at Galatea Fine Art in Boston, MA.  This exhibit brings together 46 talented New England artists working in a diverse range of techniques and media.  She has invited two of my assemblages to be part of this show: A Cup of Communion and A Cup of Melancholy. 

Barbara Tannenbaum,Curator of Photography, Chair of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs, Cleveland Museum of Art, juried this year’s 32nd annual members exhibition at the Griffin Museum of Photography.  I am honored to have my one-of-a-kind mixed media photograph, Hanging Fence, as part of this show.  Hanging Fence is an archival pigment print mounted on Dibond with an additional vintage photograph applied on the front giving it a 3D appearance.  It is part of my Unearthing an Insane Past series and measures 24 x 36 inches.

I am excited to have my mixed media photograph: Arching Despair, invited to Rhode Island Center for Photographic Arts 12^th International Exhibition by Crista Dix, Executive Director of the Griffin Museum of Photography.   Arching Despair is a one-of-a-kind mixed media image from my Unearthing an Insane Past series.

Each year A Smith Gallery’s directors: Amanda Smith and Kevin Duffy curate 4 virtual exhibits by photographers.  These exhibits are the Photographic Performance 2026. They base their decisions on five criteria: narrative power, quality of images, creativity, originality and unity.  It is such an honor to be one of the 4 artists chosen and to have my series Unearthing an Insane Past as part of this year’s Performances 2026. 

I am excited that my handmade book Unearthing an Insane Past, has been invited to the Griffin Museum of Photography 2^nd Handmade Photobook Exhibit curated by Caleb Cain Marcus.
