Starting on June 3, at Silver Street Studios in Houston, for just over a month in length, we are having a new group exhibition called Salon Summer 2023. Salon style exhibitions are also called Paris Salons, and has roots back to 1667 when the Salon was the official art exhibition of the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Each artist will curate his/her own salon space in the main corridor here at Silver Street, while the secondary hallways will be curated by Alexander Squires. The artworks i submitted at this show are three from the Nature Remebered series: Grace, The Cardinal and Midnighter, as well as two from the Fragments series: Sparta (that sold) and Atlantis.

Romania's capital city, Bucharest, displays an elegant past that, after 40 years of communism and corruption, is now reaching levels of decay that may defy renovation. Over the past ten years, I have tried to create a parallel between the image of Princess Brianna Caradja, whose aristocratic family was driven out of Romania by politics, and of the capital city that is crumbling both physically and socially. With my journalistic background, I attempt to mirror the forgotten, ignored grandeur of both the physical and social institutions of my homeland.
