The Year of the Dragon has been good to me so far. With three exhibitions coming up in February, I can barely sleep at night. Hope to see you at one of these shows:

 

Food + Art
Gallo Blanco Cafe & Bar will be hosting an exhibition of my paintings throughout the month of February, kicking off on February 3 for Artlink First Friday. Gallo Blanco is open 7:30am to 10pm and weekends until 11pm so you can see my work almost around the clock. If you haven’t been to this restaurant yet, you’re in for a real treat. Great Happy Hour specials + art! What could be better? Dates to remember:

Entertainment + Art
My painting The World’s Most Interesting Cat has been juried into the AAG exhibition at ASU Gammage in Tempe, and will be on display during the run of Wicked from February 15 – March 11. I’m probably one of the last people in America who hasn’t seen this play, but I’m told it’s really entertaining.

One of the most respected art venues in Scottsdale, Figarelli Galleries continues to provide ongoing representation for my paintings. Stop by and see why collectors from all over the world come here when they’re in town. Enjoy the beautiful sculpture garden and take a minute to breathe in – breathe out. Now, wasn’t that relaxing?
