Featured at Fine Arts Center in June

I'm being featured at the Fine Arts Center of Hot Springs (626 Central Avenue) during June.  Today we hung the show, which I'm sharing with artist Bill Wells of Mena.  I've attached a photo of one of my display racks.  I have about 25 framed paintings on display, along with 30 or so unframed original paintings in a flip rack.

The opening reception is this coming Friday, June 3, from 5 to 9 pm, during Hot Springs Gallery Walk.  Hope you can drop by, say "Hello", and enjoy the art.

Brighton Pier - #72 - Original Watercolor Painting

On my recent trip to England I spent a week in Brighton.   From my flat, I could walk to most of the interesting places - the lanes, the theater, the royal pavilion, a zillion restaurants, and of course the famous Brighton Pier.  It's a long way out to the end!
