An honor



This is a certain kind of high mark in my career. My charcoal  sketch of the cupola and weather vane that tops the iconic windmill at Truro Center for the Arts was used in an ad for them that was published in the Provincetown Gallery Guide 2006. Truro Center for the Arts at Castle Hill, then celebrating 35 years, has a full roster of classes with distinguished faculty in visual arts & writing as well as a weekly lecture series. To see my sketch used listing their distinguished artist faculty and advertising
readings and talks by:
US Poet Laurete- Robert Pinsky, biographer of Jackson Pollack- B.H. Friedman, author of Mr. Clemens and Mark Twain- (Pulitzer Prize) and of Walt Whitman: A Life (American Book Award)-Justin Kaplan, architects and urban designers-Rodolfo Macado and Jorge Silvetti, Frida Kahlo biographer Hayden Herrera, author and artist Budd Hopkins and abstact painter Joan Snyder, well, it was a thrill. Such company!
