TheBurg Cover Painting by Cecelia Lyden

This is the October edition of TheBurg, Harrisburg 's and the surrounding area's community paper.


I was anxious to pick up this edition with my painting as the cover. I arrived early at the Connerstone Coffee house in Camp Hill, one of the distribution points for the paper. The October issues had not arrived yet. I chatted with some friends till it was delivered.
I am pleased with how the painting transferred to the newsprint. It needed to be cropped, but the colors remained vibrant. The writeup on page 19 contains an explanation of how and why they chose this work and an interview with me. It also mentions the galleries that have my work and the DPP blog. It is very nicely written by Larry Binda, who also wrote about our Capitol Building Art Exhibit.
