 A Good Start!


 Charlotte-30x24-Oil

I hope this newsletter finds you well!

What a nice surprise yesterday! 'Charlotte' (above) won First Place in the Portrait Society Of America's 'Member's Only' Competition for Commissioned Portraits. Thank you so much to the Portrait Society, and congratulations to all of the other award winners.


I knew this was a special commission when Charlotte's family traveled to Tryon from Baltimore so she could sit for the portrait for two days. She was such a trooper! There is more info on the delivery here.

I've been busy in the studio; here are some recent deliveries.

Large Painting Installed

  

 The large painting 'River #7' (48x84!) was installed at Asheville's Mission Hospital, in the new Cancer Center's Chapel. Thanks to the donors, and Chris and Carol at the Haen Gallery for all their work on this project. I hope to get some photos of the painting in this special place soon.  

Sold!

Here are some paintings that have been sold recently.
