I have to write a speech, second thought.. I must  go for shopping for a new outfit.  I won't know what honor exactly til awards night preceding the preview Oct 31st.  I'm humbled and honored.  Yeah BEN!!!!

Appearing at The Grand Galleries

What a hectic and wonderful summer. I was recently asked to become a member of the California Fiber Artists, a rather exclusive group of 2D and 3D artists exhibiting together in Galleries. My first opportunity to participate is here already at the California Theater Center For The Arts in Tracy, Ca. Exhibition begins Sept 8th with a Gallery Talk and Reception planned for Sept 29th. There is a great deal of talent in this group. I hope you get to stop by.

My piece... My Kind Of Dragon" will be there.
