This 16 x 20 textile titled "Melrose Streeet", was juried into Surface Design Associations Southwest Regional Exhibition.
Dates are September 30 - November 13, 2022.
The exhibit is at the Tubac Center of the Arts, Tubac, Arizona. The juror was Annie Lopez.
This work was created from a picture taken when I was about seven years of age. The photo was taken by the mother of two neighbor boys my brothers and I played with every day weather permitting.
The lovely part of the story is that I sent my mother a picture of the textile and she took it immediately to show Steve and Tim our neighbors pictured with myself and brothers. They had never seen the picture and did not even know that it had been taken. They were overjoyed!
