My passion is the cross stitching. I love creating pictures with a needle and a thread and designing my own patterns.

I got Juror's Choice.
Artworks that depict the sky in all its moods, such as cloudy, sunny, rainy, stormy and snowy.
My baseline for making selections was the concept of a member show itself, which necessitates demonstrating the full range of styles, media, and subject matter present within the membership to express the fullest sense of its diversity. From the first viewing through the final selection, I kept formal qualities of composition, design, color, line, shape, and form in mind while staying focused on creative use of materials, craftsmanship, and subject matter.
Jeremy Stern - Juror of the Exhibit
It is my pleasure to be included in the 2nd annual exhibition of Maryland Federation of Art "Stormy Weather". My appreciation is extended to the exhibit juror - Rebekah Pineda, Development Manager of Hamiltonian Artists who chose my cross stitch painting - "After the Storm - Navy Bridge" to be one of 39 selected with over 300 submitted artworks.
The exhibition will be at the Annapolis Maritime Museum Feb 23 - April 9.
