Current Work in Summit Artspace Period Show

These days I have a renewed gratitude for my place in the local art scene.  I'm so delighted to be surrounded by amazing artists and amazing work.  This is an amazingly diverse and beautiful show!
This tryptic was created in February and March of 2017.  The creation of these abstract acrylic paintings was a catharsis for me.

Title:  Human is my race/ Love is my religion/ Peace is my weapon

Enjoy this work at Summit Artspace on East Market St. in Akron between now and May 20.

Spring Collection: Upcycled Inspiration

You know I'm all about the zippy, cheery, and hopeful inspiration.  It feels to me like we all need as much of that as we can possibly get these days.  I also love to upcycle and recycle whenever possible.

Enter my spring collection of little goodies all made with my little hands:


Let's begin with Inspiration Charms. . .

Prints Available: Fight Like A Girl

I'm pleased to let you know that I am offering prints of my recent painting, Fight Like A Girl.

The story behind the painting:
I was so lucky to be able to attend the Women's March in Washington, D.C., on January 21, 2017. It was such a powerful and transformative experience to see so many people in peaceful solidarity.  In the days that followed it was so difficult to be hopeful, but my uncertainty was transformed into action.  In the past month I have made dozens of phone calls and sent dozens of emails and postcards.  This has become my new normal.  It is from that perspective that this reflective and expressive painting flowed.

This artwork is a reminder of the historic march, and it is a rallying cry to ongoing action.

Details about the print:
The prints are on 110 pound paper.  They have a small white border.  The prints are a bit larger than 11 by 14 inches.  They are held in a protective cellophane envelope.  The cost if you pick it up or our paths cross is $15.  {I have copies in my studio for 4th Friday!}  If I ship to you the cost is $20.

I also have smaller postcard size prints (approx. 4 x 5.25 inches) for $2 each.

Send me a message or email me, if you want a copy.
