Works in progress, where I share what I'm working on and what I'm thinking about, and also show my Instagram feed. 

Please join us to celebrate @artdorkart and the large group show she coordinates at Friday's opening reception. Many artists will  have studios open on all 3 floors, now easily accessible with our passenger elevator! Hope to see you there!

Had a great time with the @urbansketchersomaha this morning at @countrysideomaha It was lovely seeing old friends and meeting new people, slowing down and drawing for a bit.

Painting patterns on tracing paper for mixed media pieces as large paintings in their ugly/awkward stage wait for attention.

Today's work in the studio: putting together journal covers with materials on hand. I've got Kraft-tex (paper leather) matched up with dyed mixed papers or gel-plate prints. The covers will encase 80 pages of mixed-media paper suitable for sketching

Inspiration/Research

April 2, 2017

Attending the "Flat Places: Deep Identities" symposium hosted by the Center for Great Plains Studies allowed me to learn from ecologists, geologists, writers, poets, photographers, film-makers, theologists and cartographers of all kinds. My mind is still swimming with the conversations and ideas that emerged. It's so good to get out of the studio periodically to learn about what other people are working on. I'll be able to more deeply consider some of the emerging possibilities as I drive between home and Milwaukee to pick up art from the Walker's Point Center for the Arts exhibit of Midwest Artist Studios project members.
