My First Solo Show! Thank you Blackbird Studios!

I had a great time and am ever so thankful for the support of those at Blackbird Studios for gettng my work out of my house and into the world!! Great things are starting to happen for me now: I've made lots of great new acquaintances and real friendships, I am shipping a series of three pieces painted for this show to a gallery in Louisville, KY to let them have a go at selling them, I have a few bites on some of the butterflies, I've got two custom orders for plate sculptures, I'm selling at West Elm, First Friday, entering into group art shows, and working on a proposal for the Contemporary Arts Center window installation project!! Weeeeeeee! I will post pictures from the show soon!

Recent Collages: The Apothecary of Virtue


I've got about twenty of these potions to whip up still! These ones are just about done-I love the old apothecaries full of potions and salves that are cure-alls! I was inspired to do this series by a trip to a "pharmacy" in Italy when I had food poisoning searching for a sure fix to the ailments I endured. Then when in Taiwan I made a point to peruse every apothecary shop I could find! I loved studying the jars of slimy organisms and brittle barks.

 I love the wavy lines on the trim of this saucer! This little squirrel just scored the biggest acorn in town and has perched himself way up high to keep it all to himself!!
