- I am now offering occasional workshops on portrait painting for 3-4 students at a time. I taught a 3-day, 9-5 workshop November 19-21 which, the students and I agreed, was very successful. I hope to do a landscape workshop in the late spring as well. If you are interested in private or semi-private lessons, or in a workshop, please contact me and I will set up a time to work with you one way or the other.
- My article (download PDF) on contemporary portraits which is part of a symposium on the state of painting is in Image Journal's 20th Anniversary Issue, #60. The journal is carried by Borders, Barnes and Noble, etc. or, if you are interested and don't see it at your bookstore, it can be purchased online here. Any comments would be most welcome.
- I have been invited to participate in a portrait exhibition at the Butler Institute of Art in 2010. The exhibit will include 10 invited artists, a group juried show, and a number of portraits from the Butler's permanent collection. Work by each of the participants is reproduced in an article about the exhibit in the current issue, no. 43, of "The Art of the Portrait," the Journal of The Portrait Society of America. On the back of the issue is a call for entries for the juried show.
