Triton Museum Drawing Exhibition 12/11-3/4/09-2nd Place Award!

Last night was the opening reception for the Triton Museum's annual drawing and printmaking exhibition. I'm impressed that the rain did little to keep the crowds away from an uplifting visit to the art show. The museum staff hosts quite a reception so perhaps I shouldn't be surprised. However, I was indeed surprised to see a second place award posted next to my charcoal drawing. It's both unexpected and gratifying to receive added encouragement for my creativity. The drawing is a study for a painting of a migrant field-laborer harvesting cauliflower. It has been on deck patiently waiting to be made into a painting. Maybe this is a sign to move it up in the lineup.

Triton Museum Drawing Exhibition 12/11-3/4/09

Triton Museum of Art

I'm super grateful to be accepted into the Triton Museum's Statewide Drawing and Print Exhibition. It will be the second time I've been able to participate in one of their art shows. That last was a couple of years ago and I was surprised to receive a bronze award for one of my grape harvest paintings. It's a tremendous venue and a great organization. The reception is Friday, December 11 from 7 PM to 9 PM.
