Hi everyone!

Just thought I would fill you in on current shows and activities that I am involved in...

I have a painting in the OCADU Annual Figure show, on display in the Great Hall from February 7-18, 2011. The opening reception will take place this Thursday, February 10,2011 from 5-7pm.

I have been busy getting ready for "Everything Is Going to Be Alright.Right" group show at Function 13.
The opening reception is this Friday, February 11,2011 from 6-11pm. The exhibit will run from February 11-17,2011.

I recently joined the thesis catalogue committee. We are in the early stages of development on the project. I am really looking forward to end product.

Tongson Chen, (http://tongsonchen.blogspot.com/) one of my thesis peers, is organizing a Drawing and Painting thesis group show in late May or early June. I will continue to post updates about the show over the next few months.
