Events & Showings
Silhouette: Women in Art
Stop by the Cheyenne Creativity Center in March for its 2nd annual celebration of Women’s History Month with our exhibition Silhouette: Women in Art. We invite female artists from all backgrounds to share their creative journeys. Whether through innovative mediums, unique perspectives, or the exploration of new ideas, this show aims to spotlight the rich talent of women artists in our community. Beyond showcasing their skills, this exhibition seeks to amplify the diverse voices and stories of all women and their profound impact on our cultural heritage. Let your art stand as a testament to the vibrant contributions of women shaping our world.
I will have three new pieces in this show! Death of a Homestead is a two-piece mixed media project. Also included a photograph titled Bosler Consolidated Schools.
Western Spirit Art Show and Sale, 2025
Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West Museum will present its 44th Western Spirit Art Show and Sale, opening March 8 at the museum. I am excited to be participating for the third time.
Gebo and Contrail will be part of the show. Here’s what I wrote about this piece:
“A contrail in the sky over the ruins of a building in the abandoned mining town of Gebo, Wyoming, illustrates the changes of time. The stone ruins recall the flourishing coal mining business that brought prosperity and growth to early 20th century America, contrasted by modern fuels used in aviation.”
11th Annual Allegany National Photography Competition & Exhibition
The Allegany County Arts Council received more than 650 entries for 2025 and is so proud of the continued growth of this competition, not just in the number of entries but in the quality of the submitted works. What started out as a small, regional effort has grown to include entries from every state in the nation and countless photographers of all skill level.
Abandoned Ranch After Storm was chosen as one of the included works in this show. The exhibition will run from March 29-April 18 at the Stephanie Ann Roper Gallery, located on the campus of Frostburg State University in Frostburg, Maryland.
The Digital Gallery will also be available March 29-April 19, and can be found here.
20th National Photography Competition at fotofoto Gallery
Andreas Rentsch, International Award-Winning Photographer and Educator, had the daunting task of choosing only 30 images out of the 401 submitted for the 20th National Photography Competition at fotofoto Gallery in Huntington, NY. He was very impressed by the quality and variety of the entries and had an extremely difficult time narrowing down the choices to fit the available space for the exhibit.
Happy Jack Moon was among the 30 images chosen for this competition. I’m excited to send this piece off to New York State for exhibition. The show will be from March 13 - April 5.
The Printmaker
Cheyenne Creativity Center presents The Printmaker, an upcoming exhibition celebrating the art of printmaking. This showcase highlights the diversity of printmaking techniques and mediums, inviting artists to share their unique perspectives and craftsmanship.
Mountain Sunset is a wood block print with watercolor. Chevy and Jackrabbit is a linocut print with watercolor. The show runs throughout April, with the opening on April 4th during the Friday Art Walk.
St. George Art Festival 2025
Hurray! My first art festival of the season is booked and we’re headed down to sunny southern Utah for Easter Weekend and the St. George Art Festival, April 18-19. If you’re in the area, plan on dropping in this beautiful locale for a great festival and amazing weather. Hope to see you in April!
