"Flamenco" is the 2008 Rogue Muse!


"Flamenco" is the 2008 Rogue Muse!

My painting "Flamenco" is the 2008 Fresno Rogue Festival Muse!
I was honored and surprised to learn that my art was selected. You'll see her on everything from posters, commercials, all sorts of printed materials, on the Rogue Map Cover and on t-shirts which you can purchase for yourself. If you get any of the above materials and would like me to sign, just find me at Ashtree Studios, one of the official venues of the Rogue Festival and I'll be happy to add my signature.
Now go forth and Rogue!

Art for your New Year!

Hello Everyone,
As the new year begins, I would like to extend thanks to the
Fresno Regional Foundation for inviting me to currently exhibit
14 of my works at their offices. I've included some of my chair
paintings, along with other favorites from recent years.
You can find information regarding the Fresno Regional Foundation
I would also like to thank Fresno Magazine once again for including
me in their December 2007 issue by doing an "artreview" of me.
Thirdly, I'd like to thank all of you ArtHoppers by inviting you to the
next exhibit at Ashtree Studios starting with the ArtHop Opening

And as a special treat, Terrance will be performing storytelling
and doing some demonstrations of his work.

And that's not all . . .

Ashtree Studios 2007 "Emerging Artists" Exhibition

Mark your calendars for Thursday, November 1st, 5-9pm at Ashtree Studios for the Opening Reception of the 2007 "Emerging Artists" Exhibition.

The show will continue through Saturday, December 1st, 2007.
Regular Studio Hours: Thursday/Friday 1-6pm and Saturday 10am-3pm.
This annual exhibit features the artwork of area high school students.
The work was chosen by Ashtree Studios owners, Aileen and Tony Imperatrice
from the 2007 Fresno County High Schools Art Exhibit at the Fresno Fair.
The art displayed at the Fresno Fair is sponsored by
the Fresno County Office of Education.
This is the chance to encourage young artists, assure their parents that their sons'
and daughters' talent for art is appreciated and thank the schools and especially the
teachers for providing the opportunity for art education.
It gives the artists a chance to show their work in a commercial gallery and be a part of the ArtHop experience. It's great to add to a resume!
