This weekend is the opening of the 41st Annual International Miniature Art Society of Florida Show. This year I was only able to send four entries but I'm happy to say, all four of them were juried in the show! The four works are, As Twilight Begins, Capturing the Glow, Nocturnal Flight, and Sanctuary.

As always, thank you for taking the time to read about my work. Happy 2016!
I'm even happier to announce that my work, Capturing the Glow was awarded Third Place in Landscape! This work received an Honorable Mention at the 81st Annual International Exhibition of Fine Art in Miniature at the Miniature Painters, Sculptors and Gravers Society show in Washington DC!

This is such an honor because the artwork in this show is outstanding, created by some of the top artists of Fine Art Miniatures from around the world! Also, another thing that makes this great is that my work was done in graphite and had to compete with all the beautiful colored paintings! Which means it wasn't competing with other work in the drawing category, but with other works in the landscape category!!! It's not easy having a mostly black and white work get any notice when it's competing with paintings! So, that's why I am beside myself and doing the happy dance! This show is the largest Miniature Art Show in the USA and there are hundreds of entries from across the globe!
The show takes place at the Dunedin Fine Art Center, 1143 Michigan Blvd., Dunedin, FL. There is a Collectors Preview on Saturday, January 16th 10AM to 5PM with the Artists Reception following at 5:30. The show runs from January 17th through February 7th, 2016! This is a wonderful show and not to be missed! I was fortunate enough to have attended the show once and hope to be able to do it again, someday. Hope you can make it there!
