Summer 2011

The larger outdoor sculptures, Metal Dancer and Peace Offering, are now at Kendall Art Gallery in Welfleet (on Cape Cod), along with a few bronze and other sculptures of mine indoors. The Dorells have run the gallery for years and are very easy to talk with about the art there. I'm pleased to be able to show my work with them. If you are on the Cape over a weekend, stop by their receptions on Saturday evenings from 6 to 8 pm.
