What’s new at the studio
Musicians on display
I recently created a series of paintings celebrating the release of “Eight,” a CD created to raise money for cancer research. A talented group of eight worcester-area musicians donated their time and talent to record eight songs to help raise money for Team Pam and the UMass Cancer Center. At the CD release party, the paintings were on display at a local restaurant, and then were given to the musicians and the sound engineer as a “thank you” for their generous sharing of their talents.

Art for a cause
Artistic collaboration
We’re getting ready to release a limited edition recording by Without A Net musicians to raise money for the UMass Memorial Cancer Center at the end of March.
As my contribution to this artistic collaboration, I stamped each sleeve with an image that I carved out of a block of foam. Every person who purchases this CD gets a truly unique artistic creation!
More information coming soon!
