Planning for Open Studios 2018!
In my previous post ch-ch-ch-ch-ch changes… about the new status of the studio, I mentioned that I may not be able to participate in the annual Santa Cruz Open Studios event… well, I’ve got some good news!
I was lucky to be invited and hosted by artists Nora Dougherty & Bridget Henry at their gorgeous space up the coast this year. I’m really grateful for the opportunity to spend the weekend with these talented ladies and I’m looking forward to seeing you all there.
Mark your calendars for Oct 13, 14, 20 & 21 | 11 – 5

And the show must come down…
Instead of adventures into the wilderness this weekend, we are headed north to Oregon to take down my exhibit ‘where art & nature meet’ at the Grants Pass Museum of Art. After a year of planning, months of building and weeks of showing; it has finally come time for the days of de-installing.
I loved having the opportunity to use this beautiful gallery space to showcase my installations and the ‘in the field’ photographs of them. The response from the viewers who got to see it in person was so positive, I’m over flowing with gratitude from your comments and compliments. For those of you that weren’t able to see it in person, please check out the video here and let me know what you think!
Thank you to everyone at the museum for inviting me into your space with open arms!
New Video: where art & nature meet exhibit
If you weren’t able to see this show in person, here’s a few of my favorite images from my solo exhibit at the Grants Pass Museum of Art in Grants Pass Oregon. The exhibit showcases seven installations from the Nest, Umbel, Relic, Lichen, Rock Candy, Bone & Hive Series. The works are all inspired by structures and patterns found in nature. These ideas are explored in abstract ceramic forms that are composed in a way that is deeply rooted to a sense of place. All of the installations are accompanied by photos of the works placed out in nature where they were first inspired by.
