I’m thrilled to announce that my work will soon be part of Nashville’s Public Art Collection in the building pictured above, the Metro Office Building! I’m one of 12 artists whose work will be selected as part of Metro Arts’ “40 for 40” campaign, the first phase of their Art WORKS initiative. I’ll have more details to share later this summer!

This is Tales from the Understory, Part 2 (Tufted Titmouse, Stinging Rose, and Oak). You’ll have the chance to see it in person at Watkins College of Art from June 21-July 12. The opening reception for the CE Teaching Artists Show is June 21, starting at 5:30. Hope to see you there!

June is a great time to try something new, like one of the 2 workshops I’ll be teaching at Plaza; and no previous experience is required for either one! Natural Abstractions is on Saturday, June 16, and The Secret Side of Books, Part 2 is on Saturday, June 30. You can find out the details here:

I’m excited to announce a new 5-week Mixed Media class at Plaza; we’ll be starting at 10am on Thursday, May 24. You can find out the details and explore all my Summer workshops and classes here:

My volvelle workshop at the Main Library is full, and you’ll have to wait until October for my Plaza workshops; but there’s still room in my 9-week Mixed Media class at Watkins on Wednesday nights! I’ll also be teaching a 2-day Natural Abstractions workshop on September 30 and October 1. Learn more about both here:

I got great feedback about my Installations at the Richland Park Library Branch, so it was sad to see them come down this week; there’s still time to see the ones at the Bellevue Branch, though!
