This year you will be able to view recent landscape and portrait paintings and pastels, and twelve large panel paintings. These twelve panels mark the final stage of my "Figure in Motion" project which has been on-going for two years. These panels will be in a process state.
  
For my “Figure in Motion “ project I have had many faithful supporters; especially choreographer Laurie de Vito and her company of dancers, Catherine Peila, director of Dance New Amsterdam (DNA) who was able to provide me with an appropriate exhibiting venue in her gallery for the "Figure in Motion" scroll drawings and oil sketches in 2011, and finally, the New York Foundation of the Arts (NYFA). This foundation intends to sponsor me until the project is complete.
