Branching Out Wood Art

Gallery Showings

Steidel Contemporary Gallery will be showing a few of my pieces this weekend at Palm Beach Art and Antique Show held in the Palm Beach Convention Center.  This is part of my expanding exhibition schedule for 2020.  These pieces are part of the display..

                                    

Fire Arts Gallery from Vermont welcomed Branching Out Wood Art as part of their gallery showing at Art Modern in West Palm Beach, Florida.  Here are a couple of pictures of my work on display at the exhibition.
