Early this summer, I was approached by the Arts Council of Indianapolis to produce six works similar to my Patterns In Flight butterfly series for their 2010 ARTI awards. The ARTI Awards are presented annually to celebrate and commemorate the outstanding support of the arts in our community. This year five ARTI awards are being presented to businesses and individuals this Friday at the Start With Art event. To attend Start With Art, register at the Arts Council of Indianapolis’ website. The event is from 11:30 am – 1:30 pm on Friday, September 3, 2010 at the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown. Individual tickets are $60.

The six works commissioned by Arts Council of Indianapolis include:

  • Dusk, Oil on canvas, 14″ x 14″
    dusk
  • Wandering Ochre, Oil on canvas, 8″ x 12″
    wandering-ochre
  • Summer Flight, Oil on canvas, 12″ x 9″
