A New Year!

 The new year is off to busy start! In preparation for my move to the Virgin Islands, I haven't entered any juried shows or scheduled any events for the next several months. It will be late Spring or early Summer before we will be fully settled in our new home in the Caribbean. In the meantime, I'm so busy organizing and packing for this new adventure that I've no time for anything else. I will begin taking reservations for the first season (November 2026) of Caribbean Art Escapes as soon as we are settled in, so get ready!

Next week I'm off to Florida to teach a workshop for the Florida Keys Watercolor Society. This workshop sold out instantly - with an overflowing waiting list - before anyone even had a chance to promote it, but maybe we can add another one in Florida in the future. Brian is going with me on this trip -- did you know that he graduated from Key West High School? We haven't been back there in nearly 40 years, so it will be nice to enjoy it again.

And coming up, the Philadelphia Watercolor Society has chosen me to be their Judge of Awards for their Annual 2026 Member Exhibition and I will also be conducting an online painting demonstration in conjunction with the event. The dates and details are still pending and I will announce them when I have more information.
