North Ridge Country Club 2012 Art Gala


Wow what a night! A second place award for my Crabtree Falls painting, several sales and now a solo show at the club through the end of March.

I had two paintings selected for the juried competition: Crabtree Falls and Merchants Millpond State Park #1. Roger Manley - Director of the Gregg Museum of Art and Design at NC State University selected these paintings and subsequently chose one for an award. I am humbled and thrilled - the selection of works was amazing. The North Ridge Country Club also purchased this piece along with the first and third place winners for their permanent collection! Wow!

This is the second year I have done this show and both times it is top notch. My friends Pat and George do an amazing job coordinating the show and making it real easy for the artists.

To top it off: along with the award - North Ridge CC is showing sixteen of my paintings throughout March. It is beautiful clubhouse and the display looks great.

  1. Micah your work was well recieved at the show and we love our persinal purchase of the Whitewater Falls.

    You failed to mention that not did Roger Manley select Crabtree Falls for second place for the show but the NRCC Art Gala actually purchased your piece for their permanent collection.

    Pat and I take great pride in supporting the art community as we build a collection of fine art for Northridge Country Club with our unique Art Gala!

    Wishing you continued success,

    George
