Learned today that this piece, Crossing the Elements, made it into the Annual International Exhibit of the Colored Pencil Society of America. It runs July 9 – August 29, 2009 at the Jacqueline C. Hudgens Center for the Arts in Duluth, Georgia. The Artists’ Reception is Saturday, August 1, 2009, 3-5 pm.
This is my second CPSA International exhibit, one more and I will become a signature member. Wonderful goal to work toward!
