I have been busy these last few weeks putting the finishing touches on twelve new paintings that I have just delivered to Gibson Galleries in Carmel. These will be exhibited at my featured artist reception on Saturday May 16th 4-7pm.

Gayle Gibson was very pleased to get these new pieces and has already hung them in the gallery and showcased several in the windows. They will be on display throughout the week of the event and many will remain in the gallery after I leave town on Sunday. I am really looking forward to the reception on Saturday. We'll be serving refreshments and light fare. I hope to see a few friends and patrons at the event.

Gibson Gallery is located on San Carlos St. between Ocean and 6th.
