First drawing chosen for the Women Artists of the DMV show

Because for the last few decades I have mostly focused on drawing, that genre of the fine arts is dear and near to my heart and very special to me.

Jody Mussoff is one of the legends of the DMV's art scene and there's nothing much that I can add to her spectacular career over the last few decades other than to honor her work ethic, her artwork, and her deep footprint on the DMV art scene.

Her artwork is in the collection of many major museums, including the National Gallery of Art's Corcoran Collection, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the Princeton University Art Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, University of Maryland, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Yale University Art Gallery, the National Museum of Women in the Arts, Delaware Art Museum, the Kunsthalle Nürnberg, and the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts.
