Ozzie painting in artEAST’s “Creature Comforts” show

My Ozzie the Cat painting was juried into an art exhibit at the artEAST Art Center in Issaquah, WA called Creature Comforts featuring art of pets.  She’s even represented on the announcement for the show linked HERE and shown below. I’ll be at the reception on Saturday May 26, 2012 in the 95 Front Street North gallery from 6pm -8pm.  The show will continue until July 17 with several pet related activities.  Cheers to pets of all kinds!
