In age, that is. Yes, indeed.

Occasionally a show comes along that seems to have been designed with you in mind. So it was with “Second Half,” a show for artists over 50. I didn’t hesitate to apply.

The show has two components, a gallery show and an entirely online show. My piece, From Which Hope Springs, is in the virtual show. Click here.

The Second Half – 50 & Older is the work of Las Laguna Gallery, 577 S. Coast Highway Laguna Beach, CA. It will run through July 31.

In their invitation to apply for the show, the gallery said this: “The viewpoints and experiences that come with age are invaluable lessons to us all on how to live life – and live it well.”

I couldn’t agree more. Certainly, earlier in my life I would not have been stopped short by the late afternoon sun striking a cluster of winter willow leaves and testifying to hope and renewal of life.
