October 28, 2012, new post: I was honored to have SPRING PLUM accepted into the national juried exhibit sponsored by the Sumi-e Society of America this year, held in Minneapolis area this past month. The painting was a gift to my niece and her new husband, Brianna and Alejandro Montes, as a wedding present and Bri and Alex were present at the opening reception. I hope it brings them many years of enjoyment, especially during the long cold winters of Minnesota. Congratulations, Brianna and Alejandro.
