City of Slidell Purchase Award

The City of Slidell recently purchased my "Monument Table" for display at a city building. I'm extremely humbled and grateful for this award.

St. Bernard Posters

I've recently completed a trio of posters featuring a collage of St. Bernard parish photographs. Traveling around the parish to capture images of a place I love was a joy, and I hope St. Bernardians will enjoy having these posters for their homes. Each poster is printed on cardstock, and is 11 x 17 inches. Posters are currently available at Gallery 421, located at 421 Columbia Street in Covington, and at Meme's, 106 Gause Blvd in Slidell. I also offer free posters with your donation to the Milton Sand Scholarship fund, sponsored by the Voices Foundation - please call or email for information..

Rougaroux Gallery at the Riverwalk

Mixed Media 2010

Mixed Media 2010, Slidell

It's with great excitement that I can share that some of my mosaic artwork has been chosen to be a part of the Mixed Media 2010 Art show in Slidell. Here's more information about this show:

The city of Slidell is inviting artists from 10 southeastern states to submit their works for the Slidell Cultural Center's upcoming Mixed Media juried exhibition.
This annual competition, now in its 18th year, always proves a unique exhibit. To qualify, artists must use two or more media to create their art. Last year's exhibit included works created with paints, pastels, clay, charcoal, paper, stainless steel, clock pieces, wood, bamboo, metals, fabrics and a wide assortment of other atypical media, such as horse hair and tree bark.

Dale Newkirk will serve as the juror for this year's exhibit. Professor Newkirk is the Director of the Southeastern Contemporary Art Gallery and the SIMS Gallery on the Southeastern Louisiana University Campus and teaches sculpture. His artwork as been exhibited throughout the United States and abroad.


Mixed Media will be displayed in the Slidell Cultural Center, located at 2055 Second Street, on the first floor of City Hall. The exhibit is set to open Jan. 15, with an opening reception and awards presentation from 7 to 9 p.m. Gallery hours are Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 to 4 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
