REACTION TIME - THE LIZARD AND THE ROADRUNNER - BRONZE, DETAIL

It is with great pleasure that I am able to share that my sculpture "Mayflies and Trout Rise, Okutama River" has been juried into the Audubon Artists 75th Anniversary Annual Exhibition This exhibition will be on display online from Oct. 1st - Dec 31st, 2017.

Thirty sculptors were selected this year to have their work displayed in this online exhibition. I am deeply honored to have been chosen to among this number.

 

Mayflies and Trout Rise, Okutama River, was displayed last year in the National Sculpture Society 83rd Annual Awards Exhibition - where it was awarded the Pietro and Alfrieda Montana Memorial Prize.  This prize is given to "an outstanding work, either carved or cast."

My sincerest thanks to the Audubon Artists Society for making this exhibition possible as well as to Ms. Alexandra Martin, who was this year's sculpture judge.
