Upcoming Winter Exhibitions

I can't believe its less than a week until Christmas and before you know it 2014 will be here. I have been fortunate to have found gallery representation and look forward to being one of two new artists at Chicago Art Source Gallery. I also received word my photograph was accepted into "Winter Visions", Copley Society Members' Winter show.

The photo accepted into the Copley show was a first for me... I usually only submit encaustic paintings but had decided this photo captured the essence of a winter vision and the jurors must have agreed.


The last painting I completed for the Chicago Art Source Gallery show was a night scene at Comiskey Park. The piece below was one of 15 the gallery manager choose for the January show and although I would like to spend more time painting night scenes, it will have to wait until after the new year.


So much has changed for me this past year, I plan on writing about the year in review some time next week. Doing that always helps me to see where I am at with my art and what direction I want to move toward in the coming new year.

  1. Comiskey Park? So you are a White Sox fan? With Chicago having two ball teams, I am so used to people finding the artistry in Wrigley Field with its ivy and history! Me? I am a fan of both teams but alas, most people land firmly on the side of one team or the other! I love this encaustic painting and it brings back my younger years when I loved to go to ball games just for the pleasure of watching the game!

    1. Sure glad you know how to spell Comiskey (I corrected spelling above, thank you). I live near Wrigley Field but have only seen the White Sox play since moving back. I suppose painting Wrigley is going to have to be on my to do list!
