Art Shows for Winter/Spring 2012

I hope 2012 has started well for you. I've been invited to show my work in two galleries in the coming months. I've created some new pieces for these shows, and look forward to the opening receptions. Both are exciting venues that are new to me, so I like the idea that some new folks will be able to view my work.

I was pleased to be invited to show my artwork at the gallery in the Unitarian Universalist Church in Birmingham. The church is at 4300 Hampton Heights Drive in Homewood, near I-65 and Green Springs off West Valley Avenue. The worship space is lovely, with two long walls of glass and views of trees and mountains, and two long walls of gallery space. It is great to have such a large space with neutral walls and lots of light. The opening reception will be Sunday, February 12, from 2-4pm. This is my first solo show, and I'm very happy to be exhibiting here. My work will be here for the three months of February, March, and April.

If you have a beach trip planned to the Gulf Coast, you may also see my work featured at the Orange Beach Art Center January 20 through March 17. The center is at 26389 Canal Road in Orange Beach. I was invited to be part of an exhibit called Craft in Alabama to showcase artists who use traditional methods to create contemporary art. A couple of fellow members of Alabama Designer Craftsmen (ADC) are also participating in this show. Please see

I'm looking forward to the shows and hope to see you at one or both receptions.
