My Summer Journey….Continues…
This past weekend I was chosen to be in a group show exhibition with my friend Brooke Harker and others at the Malibleu Gallery in Malibu,California.This piece is entitled “Dancing in The Waves” 11″ x 14″ oil on masonite.It’ll be available there till around September 1 ,or maybe a bit longer. The show is called “Wavelength” and features art with a Malibu,sea and surf theme.
Had lots of fun at the show,chatting with friends and making some new ones as well! My mom got to talk some fellow Italians..I think she had fun.
