Honors and Publications

I have been honored over the past few years by several invitations to display my guitars in museum shows and publications.

The curators of fine art museums have discovered the artistry of contemporary guitar making. My work has been invited to shows produced by the DeVos Art Museum in Marquette, Michigan; the Plains Art Museum in Fargo, North Dakota, and the Oakland Museum of California.
