The Time Has Come!
After three years in the planning, the American Impressionist Society's 22nd Annual National Juried Exhibition will open THIS WEEK at Gallery 1516 in Omaha, Nebraska. The public opening is this Friday, Sept. 10th from 6 to 8pm. We're really looking forward to hosting artists from all over the country for this exceptional exhibition. For those of you who live in the area, artists will be painting at the Henry Doorly Zoo on Thursday, September 10th, and other locations around the area from the 8th through the 11th. A "Wet Wall" sale of these paintings created on location will be held at Gallery 1516 from 4 to 6pm on September 11th (open to the publice too!). Masks will be required for everyone in the gallery.

Above is my painting created for the AIS Exhibition, a studio piece painted from a plein air study I did in my back yard. Click on the image for the story behind the painting and the title, "Rebirth - Into the Light."
