I am pleased to announce that I was invited to be a part of the Castle Gallery's 2017 Valentine's Invitational Show.  The show opens tomorrow with a reception that I very much wish I could attend.  Unfortunately, my schedule will not accommodate a trip to Fort Wayne, IN at this time.  For those of you who may live in the area I hope you will consider attending.   There will be music by Alicia Pyle, a cash bar by Dawn Nolan, and hors d'oeuvres by Tony Ficaro. I understand that a number of new paintings, jewelry, and glass are included in this special show.   I am part of the "new paintings" with eight paintings in the show.  My paintings available through the show which runs through the end of March are:  "Pool Balls" 40x30 oil;  "Road Block" 24x36 oil; "Sweet Memories" 24x18; and 5 of my Marble Minis (VI, VII, VIII, IX and X).
