EXHIBIT AT ACC CYPRESS CAMPUS

 Today I hung four paintings in the hallway gallery at ACC Cypress Campus. I always assign my students self portraits so I try to include one of mine when I put paintings in the hallway.

 Then I put up an old one, BUFFALO DAWN, but it is very big and colorful. I don't have a photograph of the roses. Then a recent work, GOLDEN CHEEK WARBLER, to balance the old one. I'm lucky to have this neutral space to hang work. I see changes, changes.

ANN KITCHEN SHOWS PAINTING AT CITY HALL

MOM AT NURSING HOME WINDOW
Ann Kitchen's office called today and asked if they could hang my painting in their offices. I'm honored. She has artists in her family. Today was pick-up day for the People Gallery's 2015 exhibit at City Hall. Ann Kitchen has an exhibit from Thornton Road Studios in her office, now. Her office will join the opening for the new People's Gallery exhibit on Friday, Feb. 26, 2016, with a re-hanging of the art in her office. My painting stays in the same building, suite 2105, for 2016! It can come home later.

Brigid Shea was in Ann Kitchen's office when I delivered MOM AT NURSING HOME WINDOW. Brigid Shea asked if I was related to CrazyCarl Hickerson. We reminisced about Carl's adventures in politics.
