March For Babies, Gaston County Musum, Wine & Cheese Tasting

Saturday was an action paced day that started out just after 7 in Charlotte. I was the Captain for Carl's Gallery Team and I'm still collecting funds.  I wore my PBL yellow shirt is support of my school club.  It was a great volunteer opportunity to help with the set up and  assisting walkers with donations and paperwork. Saturday was the "March for Babies.  We surveyed the 3.5 mile route  making sure there wasn't any hazards on it.  Then we got back on time to get some great pictures taken and lead off the start of the walk.  In the afternoon was the Gaston County Museum Show and the Arts on Main, Wine & Cheese tasting.

Art Festival Concludes Tomorrow

I have enjoyed myself attending art events all week.  Additionally selling art work, creating work, hanging shows and delivering art.  There have been several performing and visual art opportunities this week.  Tomorrow is the opening and reception of the "White Out" show and the Wine & Cheese tasting event.  Next Thursday is the Student Show!

Special Thanks!

Good  Evening

                        I just wanted to give a special thanks to everyone that came to the Pieces of April Co-Op Student Exhibit! It was a blessing and powerful experience.  It was important to see everything come together to make that one night special.  Thank you also for all of the sales that took place as well. All of us artists appreciate all of the support and mentoring that we receive.  Every sale is a victory for every artist!

Working Special Projects (TOP SECRET)

Currently working in my Special Projects division.  I am in the development stages of my newest work.  Keep checking the website for events and updates.  Thanks!  Sponsor upcoming events!

Exhibit "Touch & Go" is at Gaston College

  Hello to everyone!  My latest exhibit, "Touch & Go" is at Gaston College main campus library.  The theme behind this show is to have a positive impact on everyone you come across in life.  That is a season to grow, learn, mentor and discover your mission in life.  It is like leaving home to go out into the world and achieve excellence.  As a bird soars from the nest the focus is not the fall that may happen.  It is how high you can fly.  Every soul that I encounter, I leave them with laughter, understanding, motivation and a sense of purpose and direction.  Everyone has a purpose and has something credible to contribute to the world.  It is important to get the relationship with God straight first and the rest will fall in place. This is probably going to be my last show at Gaston before I graduate.  This has been a very exciting and action packed semester.  I'm also working on the following summer programs: Scripture & Scribbles, Power of the Crayon,  Art +Music. Touch every life that you can and encourage them to soar to heights that may right now seem impossible. Go tell your testimony to someone else.  Keep going for with excellence for all the days you are given!

My Website is Updated!!!

March was an awesome month!  I was blessed to get so much accomplished! April is going to be a super month as well.  There are exhibits that will start early April.  There are several contests to enter and art festivals to promote the arts. I look forward to selling my work. Please contact for workshops through the website: email carlsart2010@gmail.com.  It is very important to get the proper paperwork filled out and documented on the calender. I'm always looking for ways to make my website a little more user friendly.  Thanks for taking the time to view my work.  I enjoy creating work and showing it to everyone that's willing to look and listen.  I also encourage other artists to build a portfolio, find voice, and show the whole world what you have to offer.
