I am hugely excited to share that my  work “Yellow Flowers” received Honorable Mention at the 35th Annual Rhode Island Open exhibit. Of course, a big thank you to jurors Karen Harris and Lois Harada.

Wickford Art Association opened its 9th Annual Poetry & Art Exhibition, focused on the theme of “Color”. 42 juried artists created work that was paired with an unknown juried poet for their poetic response. On the opening reception I learned that Patricia McAlpine created a beautiful poem “Our Planet” based on my image “Green”. All artworks and poems were memorialized in a beautiful 2021 Poetry & Art limited-edition book which will be submitted  to The Poets House library— one of America’s premiere poetry libraries in New York City. Each edition of Poetry & Art has been submitted to The Poets House collection. The show offers some great art and poetry combinations and is on view through  October 24th in WAA’s gallery at 36 Beach Street, Wickford.
