A solar plate etching of mine, Leaf Peel, won best in show at East End Arts Council's Print Show in July of 2011. The Print Show was curated by Craig Zaniello, master printer for many well-known contemporary artists. A selection of my newest work, all monotypes, will be on view in this exhibit. The artists, each of whom has won best in show in one of the 2011 exhibits at East End Arts, will be speaking briefly about their work at the reception. You can also see a few of my newest pieces on my web site,

In other news, a piece of mine, Yellow January, was accepted in the National Juried Show Joy, also at East End Arts Council, from August 21-October 5. The curators for this exhibit were Peter Marcelle, Director of Gerald Peters Gallery in New York, and Bruce Helander, Editor-in-Chief of Arts Economist magazine.
