Summer Exhibits
Clouds of Golden Coreopsis and Prairie Old Timer
On exhibit at the National Willa Cather Center
May 17 to July 15th 2023
Red Cloud, NB
My paintings are part of the National Willa Cather Center’s “Visions Seen in the Air: An Invitational Exhibition.”
The Center’s celebration of Willa Cather’s 150th year honors her artistic legacy as one of American’s greatest authors. The title of the new work–Clouds of Golden Coreopsis–created for the invitational exhibit is drawn directly from Cather’s evocative essay “Nebraska: The End of the First Cycle.”
I painted Prairie Old Timer below in 2021 after a visit to the Cather prairie and the restored farmhouse of Annie Pavelka, the woman who inspired My Antonia. For more info see http://willacather.org
New York City at Midnight, the watercolor to the left was inspired by Georgia O’Keefe’s paintings of NYC. It is currently on exhibit at the North Shore Art League as part of its “Inspired by…” show running from April 18 through May 29, 2023.
