Boca Raton Museum of Art's "60th Annual All Florida Juried Competition and Exhibition"

The annual show at the Boca Raton Museum of Art  is always my most anticipated event, if I'm fortunate enough to be chosen. This year's curator was Dr. Valerie Leeds of the Flint Institute of Art, who culled through 1800 submissions to choose 101 for the show. My painting, Naked, which was discussed in an earlier blog, made its public debut.

What artists appreciate most about this show is that each painting is hung and lit perfectly. The curators carefully transition from one painting to the next, cognizant of how the artwork relates visually to its neighbors. The opening reception was well attended, and the concrete block name tags worn by my friends (as seen in photo above) made quite the impression. Branding efforts were in high gear!

Although I did not win an award, my friend Virginia Fifield won the prestigious merit award for her stunning charcoal entitled "Contemplations of Life, Death, and Beauty." Congratulations Virginia.

This concludes my blog for this Sunday. Thank you for taking the time to visit, and please come back often. If you have any questions or comments, I'd love to hear from you. To see more images of my artwork, please visit AddictedToWalls.com. Take care, and have an eventful week.
