Just submitted this painting for the Rose Festival juried show at Oregon Society of Artists.

Keep your fingers crossed! If you would like to see the show in person, it opens Sunday, June 10, 1-4 p.m. and continues through July 6th. For gallery normal hours, etc., see http://www.oregonsocietyofartists.com/events.htm

This 20x 24" painting was one I did during the time of the Ovanes Berberian workshop but not while he was present/teaching (important for juried shows). Learned a lot about color and paint application from him and Kat Sowa, whose still life paintings continue to inspire me.
