Geoff's watercolor painting "Lizzie's Return to Centre County" placed 1st in the Painting Category.

As written in the program brosure: "The clever composition, a wonderfully rendered watercolor in

the sub-genre of steampunk offers wit and humor.  Jurors were delighted with the contemporary,

and whimsical style and creativity combined with the mastery of the medium and skillful presentation."

Geoff will be featuring his latest piece "Jane Digby's last Soirée" at an upcoming group exhibit in Tolland, CT. The exhibit, "Two Women, Three Men: A Retrospective," will be presented by Arts of Tolland on Saturdays, March 20, 27, April 3 and 10 from noon until 4 p.m. The exhibit will be held at the Arts Center of Tolland, 22 Tolland Green, Tolland.
