I’m currently hanging work at BicMedia in Kansas City. It’s a media company in Kansas City. I’ve been working with Candy Bickford on this and she is a terrific person and patron of the arts. She reminds me of what my mom was like…

I encourage you to look them up for your media needs.  Plus, their offices are incredibly cool and artistic.

The Colors of Jazz exhibition is traveling to the Albrect-Kemper Museum sometime next year. I’ll keep you update on the dates.

A single piece from the exhibition will be traveling to the David Driscoll Center at the University of Maryland in 2012.  I’ll keep you updated on that.

Here’s an image from the BicMedia website:

Business cards arrived today. This is what the front looks like.

Ordered some new business cards. This is what the back looks like. Kind of. The back is black and white but the front of the card is color. Should be here soon.
