He refers to his art as a hybrid formof abstract expressionism. He usesoil based acrylic paints and likes toleave the lids off so the paintthickens and allows him somesemblance of control. Gravity is hisfriend and he enjoys the challengeof turning what others consider amistake in to a beautiful work of art.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
TATER DAY
On Saturday, March 12th Traffic Way celebrated
the coming of St. Patrick's Day with a street
celebration called TATER DAY. The sidewalk was
filled with lots of strollers who came into the
gallery and voted on their favorite peoples choice
award in our current show. There were five food
vendor carts scattered on the two block area.
Foods were made with potato products and
strollers voted on their favorite food!
Next door to the gallery at the wine shop, a
boutique was set up together with a pocket toss
game. Next to the Carlton in the empty lot, tables
and chairs were set up for children's crafts.
Across the street at 805 were tables and chairs
for people to stop and eat. Outdoor entertainment
was everywhere as were the green balloons!
Kay Hirons and Eileen Zachary manned the
gallery and had a great time talking with all the
Irish (and wanna be Irish) who visited. Next year,
