Upcoming show and 1st place in juried show

MacGown Exhibition in Eupora, MS
Only a few more days until my one man show opens
at the Bly Fine Arts Center in Eupora, MS from 25 April to 2 May 2009! The reception will be on 25 April from 6 to 8 PM. Everything is framed and hanging. A print of my drawing "Infinity" is matted and framed and will be given away in a random drawing. The frame alone is worth a good bit, so come on out and maybe you will leave with a cool print!

First Place in painting and drawing division at Cotton District Arts Festival Juried Show
The Cotton District Arts Festival was held last Saturday 18 April 2009 in the Cotton District in Starkville, MS. This festival has grown and now is considered to be one of the major festivals of its type in the Southeast. Lots of music, art, good food, a 5K race,
and much more. It was highlighted by the juried arts show, which was judged by Sanders McNeal from Jackson, MS. I had my piece entitled "Zabulation" accepted, and my wife Julie had a photograph entitled "Forgotten Moments" accepted. Zabulation won first place in the drawing and painting division!!

Landscapes Show at Greater Starkville Development Office
The landscape show (of which I have two pieces in) at the Greater Starkville Development Office at 200 Main Street in Starkville, MS will remain up for two more weeks. If you happen to be in downtown Starkville, stop by and view the wonderful artwork. It often surprises me how many talented artists we have in our community.
