2025 Virtual WRAP Show

The first WRAP of 2025 was the Statewide Virtual WRAP with a workshop on Saturday, February 15. Artists participated from home, anywhere in Wisconsin, or even from a snowbird address. The artwork was part of a virtual exhibit and the February 15 workshop was live online via zoom.

I submitted two of my graphite portrait drawings and received an Honorable mention for "Short Hair Dude".
