Shows, sightings and chance encounters

The best place to find Zach is at his studio (205 W Brookland Park Blvd., Richmond, VA 23222). It looks more like a garden center on the outside, but what can you say? The man loves plants.

Zachary was an artist-in-residence in 2019 at the Chateau D’Orquevaux, in Orquevaux, France., and, for a week thereafter, an artist in aspiration on the beaches of Nice.

The mixed media work “Woman in Studio” was among the 100 or so pieces (of 600 submitted) included in the Hill Center Galleries 2019 Regional Juried Exhibition (Jan. 10-March 2, 2019) in Washington, D.C.

The mixed media work “Red Circle” was chosen as one of 90 winners in Art Elevated, a juried outdoor exhibit hanging in the Garment District in Manhattan (Sept. 12-Oct. 31, 2018). The piece, a work in paper and paint on a wood panel, depicts a woman inspired by a recent trip to Vietnam. It was seen on 39th Street between Sixth Avenue and Broadway, outside a Chinese restaurant and a parking garage (parking, in New York!) and just around the corner from Bryant Park.

The photo "Fountain Lake" was part of the Click IV exhibition in February 2018 at glavekocen gallery in Richmond (1620 W. Main St., Richmond, Va.) and was subsequently purchased by Capital One for its corporate collection. It’s hanging in a cafeteria on the company’s suburban Richmond campus. With a friend in the right place, and the ability to gain a security clearance, you can see it there.

His painting “West Virginia at Night” was spotted in its usual place in his studio and subsequently scooped up for the corporate collection at Ballast Consulting Group.

In August 2018, Zach became a founding member of the Coastal Maine Residency Program for the Creative Arts. Less than two years later, it disappeared in the pandemic era, but there are still coffee cups out there somewhere.
