Painting this Thursday at Carytown Collective

Just a quick announcement that tomorrow evening (Thursday October 25th) I will be at The Carytown Collective, doing a little painting and making myself available to answer questions about the paintings I have on display. If you haven't yet had a chance to visit this shop, this event, "Fall in Love With The Carytown Collective" is a great opportunity to have some light refreshments and get to know some of the vendors, and even do a little shopping too. The fun begins at 5 PM and ends at 8. We are located at 3422 West Cary Street in Richmond. Hope you can join us in Carytown!

Now showing - A new venue and a fun art festival in the heart of RVA!

Greetings friends of the arts! It’s been a while since I have reached out and I wanted to share two exciting new venues I am participating in this fall.

Carytown Collective

As you may already know, my studio is in Ashland, Virginia, located about 30 minutes by car from Downtown Richmond. I’m always happy to show my work at the studio by appointment to interested collectors. Even so, I have had a lot of people in the Richmond area ask where they might find my work closer into town. Now I am happy to announce my partnership right in the heart of one the premier urban shopping districts in RVA- Carytown! The Carytown Collective is a shared retail space bringing you the best that RVA has to offer in gift items, home accessories, beauty brands and art. Located at 3422 W. Cary Street in Richmond, the shop is open daily every day except Monday from 11 AM to 6 PM. For more information, contact the shop at (804) 353-1509. And be sure to follow their Facebook page!

Plein Air Westhampton

My second announcement is actually an event, which takes place in yet another premier Richmond shopping district. It’s an event I’ve been looking forward to ever since participating in the inaugural event last year. Plein Air Westhampton is a week-long plein air festival celebrating paintings of real-life Westhampton, completed by 23 local artists. Artists will be working throughout Richmond’s Westhampton neighborhood during the week of Sept. 24 and present their creations during a show culminating on Sunday in the Plein Air tent, during Party On the Avenues. 10% of Plein Air Art proceeds will benefit FETCH-A-Cure – an organization providing pet owners with awareness and access to pet cancer treatment.

If you’re local to the area, I hope you can come on out to see either me, my work, or both at these two great local venues.
