Georgia Governor Nathan Deal selects local artist Pat DeVane Burns' work for the Capitol
July 26th, I had the pleasure of meeting Governor Deal and his wife, Sandra, at the Capitol in Atlanta. My friend, Judy Neal, went with me and was such a treasure to have along. Judy has worked in and around the Capitol for many years and definitely knows her way around! As Gov. Deal said to me.."She (Judy) is multi-talented!" Gov. Deal hosted a reception for approximately 22 Arts Clayton juried artists who currently have over forty pieces of artwork hanging in his and his staff's offices for a year. He personally selected the artwork and I'm happy to report that he chose all four that I submitted. For the next three years, the Arts Clayton group will submit new work to be selected. Now that we have had a tour of the Capitol and the spaces where the art hangs, I have a better idea of what to submit in the upcoming years. Many thanks to Gov. Deal for carrying on a 25 year tradition of including Georgia art in the Capitol! - Pat DeVane Burns
