Birds, birds...

... I am so enjoying painting these little mini bird portraits. And how exciting that these last six paintings are now on their way to Canada! Here are the last two but don't worry as soon as I get back from my Florida vacation I'll be painting more and getting them uploaded to my Etsy shop. Also check back for more info on some workshops coming up. Even a workshop in West Virgina!!

Women Create

Women Create - Feb 11 - March 31

3rd on 3rd Gallery, Jamestown, NY

I am excited, and honored to be a part of this exhibit curated by Jennifer Schlick and Debra Eck of CAW WNY. These women have put their heart and soul into the exhibit 'Women Create' which not only features regional women artists in the exhibit but will also feature art salons through out the next 6 weeks. The end of the exhibit will feature a flag book installation and a day full of workshops.

The flag book will be the creation of a series of twelve photo flag books that celebrate the creative contributions of women. A series of photos of women in their studios is the subject matter for the books. Jennifer spent a few hours with me in my studio and by the time we were done my tidy space was overcome with art and books pulled out and spread across the counter.

I am happy to announce I will be conducting one of the workshops on the closing day March 3, 2012. My workshop will be on image transfers so keep watching for more info soon.

Below are some images from hanging the show to the reception.  Also visit the web site 'Women Create' for more images. And thanks to Jennifer and Debra for letting me post these images.
