El Triunfo de la Muerte
October 24 – November 13, 2009
Opening Reception:
Saturday, October 24th, 2009
5:00 pm to 9:00 pm
“Often death is seen in a dark manner, however just as much life and energy can result from death. The body of work for El Triunfo de la Muerte explores the various ideals, effects, and affects of death within humanity and society. It was Vincent van Gogh who said “…we take death to reach a star.”

This is a reminder that I need the loan agreement by October 1, if you plan to be in the Kilgore College Exhibit. I need to design and order the announcements. Remember that the maximum width is 30″. The work needs to be to me by October 29 and the reception is on Oct. 30 from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. If you plan on being in Kilgore for the reception and want to bring the work by noon that will be acceptable.
