Rose 20”x16” Acrylic on gessoed hardboard

Friday night May 7, The Alliance of Fine Art concluded their annual Best of the Best show at the Peabody Mansion in Oak Brook IL, by announcing that my painting “Rose” was their pick for first place honors.

Being selected by judge Gordon France for first place in this show, made up exclusively of previous award wining entries, from fifteen art leagues in Illinois, is truly an honor. As one would expect with a show titled, “Best of the Best,” the artwork was first rate, and the Peabody Mansion’s gothic backdrop made for a great display space. Many thanks to judge France and the Alliance of Fine Art.
