Come See Some Great Colored Pencil Work!

I have mentioned my local CPSA chapter before. They are a very talented group of folks. This week I am honored to join them in a group show at the Museum of Natural Science in Raleigh. The work is all "nature-inspired". You will see a broad range of styles - some of the pieces will look like oil paintings, some will be formal in nature, some will include a sense of fun. It's a great opportunity for anyone local to see what can be accomplished with colored pencils.

Below you can see the official invitation - so you are all invited. I plan to be there this Friday for the opening. Come join us, I'd love to meet up.
