M.A.C. Gallery Exhibit



"Abstract paintings with a few brush touches too many are just like the servings of mock orange tea with added sugar." -- Wayne Thiebaud

My October, 2006, Missouri Athletic Club Gallery exhibit is pictured above. I've include
d a panoramic of the lobby so that the location of gallery off the main hallway could be viewed. Great placement for members entering from the front door valet parking area.

Many thanks to Diane Schrage, my rep, for hanging the works while I "directed" placement. We were told that the exhibit was well-received.

Again....the best part of being accepted in the Missouri Athletic Club Gallery was the curator noting that she remembered my deceased father, who was a member of M.A.C. up until 6 years ago. I had a tear in my eye when she said she remembered my dad's regular visits. He would be sooooo incredibly proud of me to have this exhibit.

I also received an announcement of my work in the Cherry Diamond, M.A.C.'s monthly magazine. Two of my paintings were featured. To read the announcement in Cherry Diamond click on the image to enlarge in new window.

The Guild at The Shrine

I'm pleased that GALILEE won 3rd place for "Best Use Of Creativity"...."Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while." -- Steve Jobs



Other paintings in the show included Crucifixion and Peace
