I was accepted into an online show by #artfusion Figures and faces and it is open June 5th. Over 457 entries internationally were submitted. Red Cloud made it into the show and you can see the show here. https://www.fusionartps.com/figures-faces-2025-art-exhibition-june-2025/
Red Cloud is a piece that is hard to portray online or in pictures. He definitely has a life of his own when you view him in person. In the meantime I am honored to have him be a big part of the online community in many shows across the US.

Founded by Award winning artist, Chris and Valerie Hoffman, Fusion Art was envisioned
and formed out of a passion for art and the artists who create it. The website promotes
and connects new, emerging and established artists with collectors and art enthusiasts,
while offering the opportunity to participate in art competitions, exhibitions and
experiences.
Each month and quarter Fusion Art hosts uniquely themed solo and group art
competitions and exhibitions. Both winners and finalists are provided with worldwide
exposure through the gallery’s extensive marketing and social media outlets. The
gallery’s objective is to promote the artists, worldwide, to art professionals, gallerists,
collectors and buyers.
