open houses and upcoming workshops

November 26, 2018

I’ll have the studio ready for visitors for the upcoming open house at Hot Shops Art Center. Stop into my place, Studio 210, between noon and 5 p.m. Saturday or Sunday. After 5 p.m. Saturday, I’ll join John Miller in Studio 219 to play some music. You’re welcome to join me for that, too! Even though I’m on the second floor now, I still recommend starting your visit on the third floor and working your way down through the building. There will be lots to see, and you can follow your nose to the delicious aromas from food available from Bang Catering on the first floor.

In my studio, I’ll have some new paintings, as well as some works in progress and selected paintings and woodcut prints on display and available for purchase. Also, I’ve scheduled two workshops in the new year, so if you’re curious about cold wax and painting with this versatile medium in a two-hour session of creative play, you can get signed up.

Parking will be available in the Mastercraft lot just north of our building, and on Saturday, our neighbors at Midco (check out the Haney Studio) and Bench will be open, too!

Last days at Farwell House

June 30, 2018

The days have gone by quickly here at Farwell House, and in spending the last day here I'm intensely grateful for the gift of time and space the Plank Road Artist Residency has provided me.

Process and layers

June 26, 2018

Creating an example that I could use when explaining my painting process was one of my goals for using my time effectively during the Plank Road Artist Residency

Exploring

June 21, 2018

Yesterday's cooler temperatures lured me out of the house to explore the area. I was curious about the parks, conservation areas and wildlife refuges along the Illinois River.
