I am pleased to share that two new collectors have acquired pieces from ONE Modern Art, my partner gallery. OMA recently showcased my early works from 2009 to 2015. From this exhibition, “Tried and True” found a home with collectors who have also become close friends. John Bell, owner of OMA, joined me at the residence of our friends Jeffery and Deborah to celebrate their new acquisition. It was a joy to see how their elegant, modern space complemented the traditional oil painting, as if they were meant to be together. Witnessing my work integrated into a home environment is a meaningful moment for me, elevating the art and completing the room. I am grateful to Jeffery and Deborah for their friendship and for valuing my painting, “Tried and True.” I feel truly blessed that my work continues to be appreciated and enjoyed.
