Featured Painting
"Inside Looking Out", 24" x 18", acrylic and fabric on canvas, $750
The endless cycle of nature captured. Looking in and out, here for now. What about the future? More questions than answers in this scene that began with a vase of flowers. In a brief moment the idea of a face came to me. Silence, beauty, mystery and a moment in time.

News
• How Much is that Doggie in the Window? is an arts fundraising project for a dog park in Los Gatos, CA. I was given a fiberglass dog to paint and this is the result. I have named him "Sky Pilot". He is proudly on display in Bow Wowser, 100 N. Santa
Cruz Ave., Los Gatos. There are 20 dogs, all painted and embellished by local artists and art groups. They are in a variety of locations around Los Gatos. Silent bidding takes place on each precious pup until June 5.
• I am happy to have helped the San Jose Museum of Art and the Triton Museum of Art by donating a piece of art to each for an auction fundraiser.
• The Campbell ArtWalk continues to grow. Some of the retailers are now hosting artists in their shops. Join the ArtWalk the third Friday of every month.
