SNEAK PEEK!

I'm working on making some functional items…
I aim to have a "store" open online by the end of winter so stay tuned. If you join the mailing list (see the footer on any page of this website) you will be one of the first people to know when the store goes live. 

I'm thrilled to announce that… 

I have been selected to receive the Ora Schneider Residency Grant at the well established and wonderful Women's Studio Workshop in Rosendale, New York. I will be an artist in residence at the WSW starting in September 2015 for four weeks. It is an honor to follow in the footsteps of the many inspiring women who have worked there during the forty years of its existence.

My Narwhals are up!!! 

Yes Siree & Ma'am! My first formal public art work is installed in Washington D.C. on the corner of North Carolina and 2nd SW. To the left is my proposal image as I have not actually been to the site yet to document the piece. It will be there for a minimum of five years, so please send me photos if you go. 


Here's the website, which is still in the process of being developed, for the whole project of which I am one of about twenty artists:  This Place Has A Voice

YEEHAW!!!

Going to NCECA soon and this is why:

My Co-Curator, Collaborator and friend, Jill Foote-Hutton, and I have been working on a project for over a year. First, we developed an exhibition concept, brainstormed artists to include, then wrote a formal proposal, and submitted it to several places. We were rewarded with getting an exhibition at the 2014 NCECA conference that will be held at the end of March in Milwaukee (it's a big deal clay thing: http://nceca.net/static/conference_home.php). In addition, another gallery selected our proposal for their May slot in San Antonio. So, I think we have a good thing going and others seem to agree, hopefully you will too. 

I invite you to learn more about the project by visiting this webpage: http://www.hatchfund.org/project/within_the_menagerie. If it is a project you find interesting I hope you would consider supporting it through a financial contribution. Beyond just feeling good, one benefit to you is that all contributions are tax-deductible, plus we have several incentives/perks for all levels of donations beginning with $5. I would be happy to discuss the project with you if you want more information.  

Upcoming Exhibitions...two in fact!!!
