Thanks For A Wonderful Night!

Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty

THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL OPENING TO MY ART SHOW! 
I understand how busy and chaotic our lives are.  So, I really appreciate how my friends, old and new, have taken the time to support me and my creations.  And last night was a collection of amazing memories of all the beautiful moments we experienced together.  Thank you for coming to my show.  It is because of you that dreams have come true.       
If you weren't able to make it, we missed you.  But, the show will be up through the month of May at:

540WMain Art Show Reminder

Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty


I'd like to invite you to my 540WMain art show opening.  My 
Brightscapes series is inspired by May being Chronic Pain Awareness
Month.  I wanted to create something to alleviate that chronic pain.
For people to imagine wandering around southern France.  To have
the warm sensation of the sun while hiking through fields of lavender.
To see amazing medieval towns as the waves of the Mediterranean
splash against the beach.  To be transported somewhere away from
that chronic pain they may be experiencing.  
So, please join us:
