What's New?

As autumn is solidly upon us, we are in the midst of artisan festivals, fine art shows, and handmade gift buying opportunities. Spending so much of my time working on new paintings, I found my inventory of gift items to be on the low side. So I slid into gear to create more fine art cards and pendants. Pendants are made from photos of my paintings affixed to glass with a silver backing and hung on a 24 inch silver chain.



All art cards are reproductions of my original paintings printed with archival ink on fine card stock with matching envelope. There are a few new designs this year, as well as usual favorites.


I'm working to finish up more mini journals with tiny original paintings attached. Remember them? Each Moleskine cahier pocket sized journal comes with an ACEO affixed to the front that can also be detached if you are a collector of ACEOs. I will post photos next week when some are completed.

Happy creating to all my fellow makers out there. I know how busy you are right now!

Reunion Show Tonight, 10/6 at NUarts

Along with several other artists who are also alumni at NUarts, I will be showing work from my new series tonight. If you are in the area, you can find me at Studio 19, where I will be camping out for the night. Who doesn't love a pop up exhibit, right?

The artists are NUarts have graciously invited us for a night of art, conversation and camaraderie. Having enjoyed five years as part of this group (and Art on No) before moving to Albany, I am so pleased to be joining them tonight for this First Fridays Artswalk in Pittsfield.


"Sun Over Mountains" is a mixed media piece with a lot of texture from my new series, Fake Landscapes. There are eight paintings from this series on view this evening. It's such a fun series to work on!
