I currently have paintings up in three galleries in Philadelphia.

I am showing my work in the Kimmel center (photo above) in an exhibition called Illustrative Design. My paintings are being shown along with two other recent graduates from Moore College of Art & Design, Sarah Fritzen (sarahafritzen.blogspot.com) and Jaeger Rae Cohen. For more information about the exhibition please click here. The show will be up until October 8th 2011.

I have two pieces in the Philadelphia Sketch Club's annual Philastration Show. Philastration is a juried group exhibition for illustrators. It runs through the end of July 2011.
Here is a photo of one of the pieces hanging on the wall.
