Default A Red Letter Day for Sure!
The skies opened, the clouds parted and the sun beamed down on the Out West Gallery! Just got off the phone to the director of Woolaroc Museum who offered me the opportunity of a exhibition of my work toward the end of the year. What an opportunity!

https://woolaroc.org/pages/museum-and-art

They ask if I could fill an area 20 X 60 feet!!!! I've attached a photo of the gallery area. Looks like I've got some work to do!

What an honor! To be considered worthy of displaying my work in a museum that features one of the best collections of Charles Russell, Frederic Remington, Joe Beeler, and a host of other top western artists both past and present. I guess you can tell that I'm so proud and high off the ground right now that my fingers can hardly reach the keyboard. I'm not one that brags much but just this once I'll make an exception. "Lynn.......Today you are definintly the man!"

Lynn, you are right up there with the rest of those artists! A well deserved offer from the museum. Are they aware of all the help you give to other carvers? If not they should be. You have a special place in the hearts of many around here. Congratulations!
