This weekend was very exciting for me. I was given a great opportunity to take part in the grand opening of a truly extraordinary Art Gallery in downtown Durham at Bright Leaf Square. I was approached a few months ago by the gallery owners with a wonderful chance to hang my work with many other extremely gifted artists from the area. I hope that you will get an opportunity to visit this venue, as it is truly beautiful. Their framing shop is STATE OF THE ART!! Bull City Art and Frame has the only visual imagery system for project design in the area. (This means that you can see EXACTLY what your piece will look like matted and framed before ever a single cut is made!) I have found Lewis and Tiffany, the owners of the gallery, to be the most down-to-earth and thoroughly professional couple. They gave me a great opportunity to sketch in the gallery over the weekend during the Durham Art Walk.
The images of me and Emily with my work were taken with our camera. All of the matting and framing were done by Bull City Art and Framing Company. The images here of me drawing were taken by my new friend Garry Boyce, who is a great artist, metal sculptor, and, as you can see, photographer! His metal working studio has a fantastic website at
