Currently, my solo exhibition is on display in Philadelphia Pa at the Slingluff Gallery.  I'm super excited about it, the reception was April 2nd and it really was a great time.  Thanks to everyone who came out!  There are 25 pieces included in the exhibit and here is the link to view the work. http://www.slingluffgallery.com/Current_Show.html Also, for reception and installation pics, check out my blog!  http://laurenadamsart.blogspot.com/ From The Slingluff Gallery's FB page:  "Tim Pervious said it perfectly 'Her work was beautiful, like nature seen through a dream; off focus but brilliant with color and emotional impact'".
