I am pleased to announce that I have been asked by the Museum of Fine Arts Boston to demonstrate my tessellation techniques in conjunction with the first M. C. Escher exhibit at the museum. My demonstrations will take place in the John, Bertram A. and Ronald M. Druker Family Pavilion (Classroom 159) on February 11, 2018 (Sunday) from 12:00 to 3:00 pm and on February 14, 2018 (Wednesday) from 5:00 to 8:00 pm. The event is free with museum admission. I will be showing how I begin a tessellation and then a watercolor of the design and linocut techniques. Additionally I have some take always for those that want to try their hand at making tessellations! Please come by and visit and see the Master works of M.C. Escher in Gallery 153 and 154 during your visit! For those of you that are Escher fans you must see the exhibit.

Studying arts is not that good. I mean, if you are an artist, then you need to practice, not learn the theories. I know that a lot of schools do not like this idea of mine, but I really believe that it is true. If you are an artist, it is better for you to practice than to spend your time reading books. There are ways for you to learn, and using your skills is the best one that I can think of.
