DENTON, TX

The Annual Merging Visions Exhibition is at the Goff Gallery in the Appleton-Patterson Center of Visual Arts in Denton during August and September.  I have a painting which was done at one of my Ghost Ranch workshop/retreats: "All Creatures Great and Small." Merging Visions is a collaboration of the Denton Poet's Society and the Visual Arts Society of Texas. This fabulous annual show pairs the written word with the visual image and is one of my favorites.  View it online:

DENTON, TX

My mural of Denton was selected by Wal-Mart for their public art project to install murals in their stores. A specially designed mural showing the "Vibe of Denton, Texas" was chosen for the Loop 288 Super Wal Mart location, where it is now installed. The design is posted under the Public Art tab. Of course, I haven't been able to see the real installation yet...

I was selected by City of Grand Prairie Public Art Program to have two of my watercolor images transferred with vinyl wrap to traffic signal boxes. In 2019 my "Tangled Tulips" watercolor was installed at the intersection of Carrier Parkway at Hill St and in 2018 "Red Dragons" was selected for the intersection of Carrier Parkway and Arkansas Street.  (Take a peek on the Public Art tab above)
