The Orange County Center for Contemporary Art’s 40th year anniversary celebration can be seen online HERE.

My piece “EGGs Traveling Through Time”; 2019; 72×72; mixed media on arches. Was selected to be part of the exhibition. The nine squares are moments in the journey, think of it as a tic-tac-toe layout of being able to transverse in any direction at any time in many spaces.  Light reflecting on the big EGGs in the middle as a grounding balance like in the feng shui bagua where the yin yang symbol is positioned. Another moment in the metaphorical representation of life’s echoing vibrational pull.

EGGs Traveling Through Time; 2019; 72z72; mixed media on arches.

Art in California: The California Arts Council at ca.gov

Here is an organization for California Artists… you might be interested in checking out and start getting their newsletter to keep updated on what’s happening with their organization. I copy and pasted the below info from their site for best reproduction of information.

“The mission of the California Arts Council, a state agency, is to advance California through the arts and creativity.

The agency encourages widespread public participation in the arts; helps build strong arts organizations at the local level; assists with the professional development of arts leaders; promotes awareness of the value of the arts; and directly support arts program for children and communities.

The 11-member Council and professional staff have expertise in the arts, creative industries, education, community development, state and local government, and the nonprofit and for-profit sectors.  The arts spark the engine of Creative California, and our goal is to ensure that they are available for every Californian.”
