My work "Not A Mural Mural" was selected for ArtFields 2017.  An annual, nine-day art competition in Lake City, South Carolina – and the largest competition of its kind – Artfields awards more than $120,000 in cash prizes to artists from across the Southeast. And, it’s also infused new energy, creativity, and growth into Lake City and its surrounding communities.

“40 over 40” is an invitational exhibition presented by EBD4, the new art venue in Chamblee, Georgia. Exhibition dates are November 11, 2017 through December 15, 2017; with an opening celebration on November 11 from 6:30 to 9:30.

"40 over 40" presents works by Atlanta–area artists ages 40 and over, whose careers range from newly discovered to seasoned.
Thank you to all the wonderful artists who are showing work in 40 over 40!

Under the curatorial efforts of Elyse Defoor, the exhibit offers fresh counterbalance to the art-world ageism faced by many artists during their later years. "When considering the impressive art made by famous older artists later in life such as Georgia O’Keeffe, and the many well-known mature contemporary artists such as Kara Walker, Anish Kapoor, and 100 year-old Carmen Herrera, this show champions artists who continue to take risks, explore, and do the work that they are meant to do,” says curator Defoor.

An impromptu expression of my love for our city.  On my way to visit a friend on the Beltline, I rode by a yard sale and a spool of red yarn caught my eye.  Not knowing what I would do with it I purchased it for a dollar.  After meeting with friend,  I decided to try and weave a heart in the fence above Ponce de Leon Avenue.  If it says anything to anyone I hope it says it doesnt take much to show your love and have a big heart.

Peter Street Station is an artistic community center, gallery and coffee house in Castleberry Hills. Legendary City of Ink co-founder and tattoo artist Miya Bailey manifested it as another hub in the local art community, which shines through in the works cultivated in the parlor. The space offers free art classes, private studios and a gallery with rotating exhibitions. This closing party for “City of Ink 11: Expression,” which is celebrating its 11th anniversary, will feature live performances by jazz collective Visitors, denim-wearing, house-heavy rapper Hommeboy, and a closing set by DJ Genesis. This is the last chance to check out an eclectic display of paintings by artists from the tattoo shop and the local community.
