Backus Museum Exhibit


I am excited about being invited to exhibit my work in the upcoming "Salute to Backus" at the A.E. Backus Museum in Ft. Pierce, Florida, January 16 - March 8, 2013.

I was fortunate to work with Beanie in his studio for about 10 years in the very early part of my career.  Actually I had no "career" at that time, just a beginning hobby painter eager to learn all I could from such a great master painter.  I am proud to call him my mentor but also a wonderful friend.

The painting posted here is one of the smallest in my collection for the exhibit/sale, just 5"x7".  It was inspired by a kayak trip up the Silver River.
