It is finally here after nearly 9 months – my first formal exhibit. My wife and I spent many hours printing, matting and framing prints and are glad to have that part completed. Tonight is opening night and I am sure I will be excited and perhaps a bit nervous.
Last Saturday I did get a preview of the exhibit as you can see in the pictures here. It is very satisfying and fun to see your images all hung together and lit with those gallery spots. Those lights can make your images really pop – like the “Windblown Poppy” below.
And here is one thing you will rarely (close to never) see in my blog – a picture of me, but here I am with one group of prints.
If you are in the area, I would enjoy meeting you tonight. There will be music and food to enjoy along with artwork from several artists.
The exhibit will be open from June 7th-June29th. Hours are 9AM to 9PM M-Thu, 9AM to 6PM Fri and 10AM to 4PM on Sat. The Glenn and Viola Walters Cultural Arts Center is located at 527 E Main St., Hillsboro, OR 97123. For more information call (503) 615-3494 or visit www.ci.hillsboro.or.us/wcac.

Congratulations on your exhibition, Stacey! It looks great. If I were in the area I would love to check it out but, alas, I am in Arkansas.
Thanks Terry. There was a good turnout and it was an enjoyable experience – not nervous at all. I was thirsty a lot from talking so much. Good thing there was a water fountain near by…
