Communicate Better!
How might you use a blog to share what you know or promote your business better? Are the illustrations you are using with your social media and blog posts working for you or against you? How is writing a podcast or public service announcement script different from writing a blog post or a press release? What guidelines for creating PowerPoints will help you keep your audience awake and engaged? Everyone can communicate more effectively!

Local Friends: Come!
Come this Saturday night, March 18, to Ruston Artisans at 203 W. Alabama Ave. in Ruston to hear my presentation.

So come and check out what you…

I picked two of my favorite pieces and both were invited into…
“Bolt” Strikes Again
Bolt out of the Blue is currently part of my #ArchitecturalAbstracts show in my Co-op space at Ruston Artisans on W. Alabama in Ruston. Tomorrow (Feb. 18) I will be there from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. and that will be your last chance to see the piece for awhile! Bolt has been invited to the “Baldwin National 2023” in the Holt-Russell Gallery at Baker University in Baldwin City, KS. The show runs March 4–25, 2023. One of the things I enjoy about this image is that it is one of what I call my “impossible photographs.” That is because…
