I was awarded the designation of "Associate Living Master" by the Art Renewal Centre in 2017. Two years later at the 14th ARC Salon, my painting "Labyrinth" was also finalist and went on to win the Haynes Galleries Award and was sent with other winners to be featured at The European Museum of Modern Art in Barcelona Spain and later at Sotheby's in New York. Part of the award also included a group show entitled "The Magic of Realism" at the prestigious Haynes Gallery near Nashville TN, USA. It was a thrill to show my work in the same gallery that represents the Wyeth family. Father Newell, son Andrew and grandson Jamie were all influences in my career.

Lunar Codex Time capsules ...
In May of 2021, I learned that digital copies of two of my Sirens paintings are to be included aboard the Peregrin lander, in the Astrobotic/DHL "MoonBox" Time Capsule destined for permanent residence on the Lacus Mortis region of Earth's Moon, now scheduled for launch in late 2022.
I'm excited to now learn that a further 21, for a total of 23 of my Sirens paintings will be included in both the Nova Collection and the Polaris Collection, scheduled for launch in the December, 2022 and the Fall of 2023, respectively. The Nova Collection time capsule, aboard the Nova C Lander, will be transported via SpaceX rocket and will take up permanent residence in the Oceanus Procellarum region of the Moon. The Polaris Collection, aboard the Griffin Lander/NASA Viper Rover, will also be transported via SpaceX rocket and will take up permanent residence in the region of the lunar South Pole.
The Peregrin, Griffin and Nova Landers are all part of the NASA Artemis Project that will return humans to the Moon in 2025, for the first time in over 50 years, with the intent of establishing a permanent colony on the Lunar surface. This colony will serve as the jumping off point for later missions to the planet Mars. I'm hoping to be part of a Mars time capsule at some future date!
The Lunar Codex started as a project by renowned Canadian scientist Dr. Samuel Peralta. The Codex is a message-in-a-bottle to the future, so that travellers who find these time capsules might discover some of the richness of our world today. It speaks to the idea that, despite wars and pandemics and climate upheaval, humankind found time to dream, time to create art.
In preparation, NASA will send scientific instruments to the Moon, over 2022 to 2024, via Commercial Lunar Payload Service (CLPS) partners, such as Astrobotic Technologies and Intuitive Machines. Their lunar landers will launch as payloads of commercial rocket platforms by the United Launch Alliance (ULA) or SpaceX. Along with NASA instruments, these missions will carry commercial payloads, including the three time capsules that make up The Lunar Codex.
