I was recently blessed with news of the acceptance of two works in oil into the 2015 Seven-State Biennial Exhibition. The Juried exhibition is unique in that it begins September 26, 2015 at The Nesbitt Gallery, located on the campus of the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma in Chickasha, Oklahoma and ends on the 31st day of January, 2016 at the Museum of the Red River in Idabel, Oklahoma. But wait, there’s more… sandwiched between these two locations the show hangs in Ardmore, Oklahoma at the Goddard Center from November 15, 2015 thru November 25, 2015.
The two works accepted into the show were an 8 x 24 oil on canvas titled “Shotgun” and an 18 x 24 oil on canvas called “The Blue Window”.
Top: Shotgun, 8 x 24, Oil; Bottom: The Blue Window, 18 x 24, Oil.
The Juror for this competition and exhibition is internationally known artist James Surls. James is one of the most preeminent sculptors in the United States. His artwork has been seen in over 350 solo, group, museum and gallery exhibitions across the world.
Another blessing came in the acceptance of two of my wife’s beautiful wildlife photographs. A Great Blue Heron titled “Airborne Blue” and another titled “After Its Kind”, which captured a nesting Great White Egret and 3 of it’s young. You can see her photography here: www.DonnaMillerPhotos.com
