I will have new work available at Iridian Gallery's Bling It Out at Diversity Richmond on December 9th. There's a silent auction from 7 to 10pm, bids start at $25. Over 50 artists are involved, so there's going to be a lot to see!

I will also be making work live on December 10th at 1708 Gallery's Monster Drawing Rally. I'm in the third heat from 3:20 to 4:20. Everything is $65 and I plan on doing a few larger pieces that would normally go for $500 or more. Don't miss it!

I contributed to a piece for artspace's ArtRoulette and silent auction. It was made in collaboration with Anne C. Savedge, Genesis Chapman, and Jere Kittle, and is on view now through December 9th. A closing reception will be held from 7 to 10 pm. For more information, go to : http://www.artspacegallery.org/artroulette/index.shtml
