I want to congratulate my little brother on his amazing accomplishment building a website for the United Methodist Church based out of Nashville. I am very proud of him, he is a father of two beautiful girls, Grace and new born Ella who came into our family Dec. 24th this past year. I was best man at his wedding and I will say that one of the greatest visions I ever experienced was seeing absolute Love by witnessing their eyes when they exchanged vows.

Here is the comment on UMC.org which Matt manages the site build. Congratulations Matt!!

Matt Carlisle, director of Web ministries for United Methodist Communications, speaks with reporters during an online press conference to announce the launch of the redesigned UMC.org, the denominations Web site. Reporters from church and secular media participated in the Jan. 29 press conference, which was followed later in the day by a similar conference for bloggers. A UMNS photo by Mike DuBose.

This past weekend was the the closing of my exhibit here in Los Angeles at George Billis Gallery. It was a great show and response from the community. Thanks to all that came great distances to see my new work.

Now it’s time to prepare for my annual exhibit in Columbus Ohio. The reception will be April 6th, 2007 at Sharon Weiss Gallery. I will keep an update on new work for this exhibit here on my blog.

A special thanks to all my friends and clients that sent positive words to me as I went through surgery in January. I am recovering well with alot of rest and prayers. 2007 will be a great new year!
