There is still time left to check out this exhibit featuring artists from all over the nation.

Join us for the Closing Reception of I Am Multicolored: The Human Connection at Quinlan Visual Arts Center as we celebrate this powerful exhibition and the artists whose work explores identity, community, and our shared human experience.

Spend the evening connecting through art, meeting the artists, and experiencing the exhibition one last time before it closes.

I’m excited to share that two of my pieces, Interwoven and Before the Pines, have been accepted into the Quinlan Visual Arts Center’s Summer Exhibition, “I Am Multicolored: The Human Connection.”

This juried exhibition, inspired by Lenn Redman’s poem What Am I?, explores the many ways we connect through our shared humanity, experiences, and stories. It is an honor to have my work included alongside so many talented artists.

I will also be participating in the Georgia Art League Pop-Up Artist Exhibit, taking place at the same time and location. I don’t yet know which piece will be featured there, so that part will be a surprise.

If you’re in the Gainesville area, I’d love for you to stop by the opening reception and awards ceremony:

Gainesville, Georgia

With both exhibitions taking place simultaneously, at least three of my pieces will be on display that evening. I hope you’ll come by and enjoy an evening of art, community, and connection.
