My painting, The Shepherd was accepted into the Art Renewal Center’s 12th Annual ARC Salon Show. The show is now up and online. I am in The Imaginative Realism Section. There are other sections such as Portraits, Figurative, Landscape, Still Life and Drawing. You can scroll down and see my painting at this link:

Here is a little bit about the Art Renewal Center from their About Page:
The Art Renewal Center® was founded in 1999 for the advancement of traditional and contemporary representational art. The International ARC Salon Competition, dedicated to realist artists, is the largest and most prestigious in the USA and perhaps the world. Our ARC Salon competition and works that appear on ARC in general are intended to promote the highest quality in realistic art. ARC believes highly in freedom of speech and we do not censor based on subject matter or political commentary. Works are chosen based on their overall power and technical achievement. The subject matter of the works in the ARC Salon competition and on the ARC website in general are not necessarily expressing the views of the ARC, its staff or management.
This is the fourth time I have been chosen to be apart of this show. Always an honor to be apart of such high quality artworks.
