Having my work for sale in 
America’s oldest art supply store (since 1852!) is a thrill beyond words! C.C. Lowell in Worcester, Massachusetts has expanded their inventory in recent years to include items created by local artists, my stuff included! Check it out!
…aaaand, we’re back!

*sigh*
I fantasized about endless, rambling studio hours when the weather was warming up this past spring, but life got in the way. “Clumps” of creative time were all I could muster, but not nearly enough to fill me up. And alas, here we are, holidays fast approaching and 2022 is winding to a close.
But, some fun new crafty things did happen! 
Here are a few of examples of items that are heading over to Dandelions gift shop in Barre, and they may end up at holiday fairs near you! Keep your eyes open!
The silver lining
August 22, 2022 By
Earlier this year, an art journal that I had worked for much of 2021 was destroyed in a tractor trailer fire. The entire Brooklyn Art Library Sketchbook Project collection was being transported to a new location in Florida, but along the way the truck caught fire. 30% of the sketchbooks were destroyed, including mine. It was destroyed before they were able to digitize it for online viewing. The silver lining: I photographed it before I shipped it to them.
The saddest part of this whole thing is that no one will be able to hold the book in their hands and experience the interactive pages that I built to illustrate it. It’s my interpretation of the song, “Inside” by Sting. It’s high up on my personal list of favorite songs ever. And this was one of my favorite pieces that I had ever created.
This piece was intended to be part of a series, as I only illustrated about 1/3 of the lyrics. You can view it at at the link below.Summer break
July 16, 2022 By
I’m taking a short break from indoor art projects, but wanted to post a snapshot of the beauty all around the studio, including the oh-so-inviting front porch! Ideas are percolating, but for now, I’m enjoying this relaxed summer pace. I’d also like to point out the finished chicken mosaic in its summer location. It was a fun project and I’m pretty happy with the finished result.
