In some cultures, eggs play an important role in Easter celebrations. The following painted ostrich egg was just recently completed as a commission.

For those who are curious about this particular craft, it can take any where from 10 days (7 hours of continuous work) to 30 days (or longer) in order to complete an egg. It involves very detailed and delicate dexterity.

Over the past decade or so, I have taken part in 13+ art exhibitions at various art galleries, restaurants, hotels, craft shows, etc. I will try to gather some information about these past exhibits — if possible. However, please keep your eyes on this page for any news on my future exhibits. Now that I have a “new and improved” website, I will list everything relating to exhibits, projects (commissions, etc.),  press articles, and so forth on their respective pages. After all, this is the Information Age. :-)
