I am participating in the Canvas Project which will be shown in the Atlanta Airport's Atrium Gallery. The show runs from July 31st - Sept 4th. I was given four random words to illustrate and some small 3"x3" canvasses. Here's what I came up with, all on paper mounted to canvass.

For those of you in the Seattle area, I've got a couple of pieces in the annual Capitol Hill Watercolor Society show at Cafe Racer in the U District. The theme is "Paranormal," and the opening is this Thursday the 9th from 7-9. I've never been to Racer before but I hear it's swingin and the show I'm sure will be great!


In Seattle I've also got a little something over at Nancy in Belltown for the Late Night Fashion Club. It's also Nancy's 3rd year anniversary! Help them celebrate on Fri from 6-9
