We have now come to end of this exhibition. Needless to say, being an artist takes a lot of courage!  Like I always like to say "Being an artist is not for "sissies!"  In fact, this particular exhibition, especially the finale, dedicated to "The Art of the Nude" required that I be courageous and also make myself very creatively vulnerable.  I didn't back down from the topic of nudity.  Instead I confronted the topic of art and nudity head on. I challenged myself, taking creative personal risks with this exhibition dedicated to the art of the nude.  I definitely went beyond my comfort zone, but I have no regrets!  How can I inspire you if I don't stand up and express myself creatively?  So now that I've completed this exhibition dedicated to the nude, I hope I've inspired you not just as an artist, but also as a "brave and unconventional" art director!   I know I broke some rules along the way.  So be it.  I hope you've enjoyed the show!  

 

When I'm visiting exhibitions with friends I always like to joke that every exhibition always end up in the gift shop. I"m sorry, but it's true!  We always end up in the gift shop buying mementos from the exhibition.  As an artist and designer, likewise, I hope you'll consider showing your support by purchasing at least one of the many unique art designs from the gift shop as a small token of appreciation for the time and work that went into making this large online exhibition available for you totally free of charge.  So, if my work in the arts has inspired you in any way, I personally thank you for showing your support in the gift shop! 

​

Thank you.
