Between January & April 2012, I participated in The Billboard Art Project's Sight & Sound Invitational Residency to create a new project with artist Leah Rico http://leahrico.com/home.html.  The residency was a creativity fueled retreat where ideas were born.  My final work with Leah is titled Patterns of (missed)Communication.  It was on view over I-195 on weekends in April with the sound portion (by Leah Rico) broadcast over the radio on 105.1 FM.  This entire experience and project was mind opening.  I am so grateful to have met and worked with such a wonderful group of artists.  Here are a couple of images; you can see them all on the Flickr link below.

It's 2012 - so it's been a while. My current show A Few Little Follies, with artists Matt Brett & Lala Rascic, at The Highpoint Gallery in Richmond, VA, will have a closing reception this Friday, May 18th from 6 -9 pm. It was such a great experience to show show with Matt & Lala. Their work is really exceptional and it is an honor to have been included with them! https://www.facebook.com/events/332039840198480/
