On January 24 I was honored to be at The Finalists' Reception of "Artists Of The Year 2017" at the Mall Galleries for the 3d time! It was lovely to see some new and some familiar faces and to be able to share some news and views with fellow artists.

This year my painting "Autumn Thoughts" was short listed for this exhibition. It was so crowded and noisy and overall a very happy, excited atmosphere. I was impressed with the quality and diversity of styles and subjects of the 50 short listed exhibits. It was a great evening.
