"The Art of Nature," an exhibit of works by the Northern California chapter of the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators; three works of mine will be in the show. Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History, 1305 East Cliff Drive, Santa Cruz CA. Open Tuesday through Saturday, 10–5. Small admission fee. I'll be at the reception: Friday, March 19, 6–8 p.m. (free). [Note for those who might be wondering: This is an entirely different show from the one of the same name last fall at DVC. Also, since the Science Illustration program has moved from Santa Cruz to CSUMB, their spring student illustration show will be moving to the Pacific Grove natural history museum. Hence the Santa Cruz museum asked GNSI-CA to take over the annual show at their venue.]
