\"Kentucky<\/a>One of the most satisfying occurrences of the year so far was to learn that Kentucky Sovereign,<\/strong><\/em><\/a> my collage collaboration with Robert Hugh Hunt, had been accepted into the 2016 Governor\u2019s Derby Exhibit. The two of us never dreamed that the piece would find its way to the Capitol Rotunda in Frankfort, but there we were, getting to meet the First Lady and explaining our unusual work of art. Hunt\u2019s Mama\u2019s Story<\/em><\/a> also made the cut, the only \u201ctraditional\u201d collage in the show (a black and white gem). Needless to say, to have any aspect of my creative life represented in this high-profile exhibition is a distinct pleasure, especially because it\u2019s a part of the Kentucky Arts Council<\/a>\u2019s 50th Anniversary celebration. The exhibit lasts until May 7. <\/p>\n

Robbo and I<\/em><\/strong><\/a> are already conspiring to initiate a second collaborative project<\/a>. Visit here again to learn more about it!
