I am excited to announce my first art show opening since the birth of my daughter last February. I have been busy these last few months preparing a series of small encaustic collages as well as some new sculptures. This show is a follow-up of sorts to my last show, exploring life in my downtown neighborhood. From the artist statement:
This body of work captures a snapshot of where we are now, two years into what will surely be a lifelong process of working to make our neighborhood the safe and welcoming place we want it to be. Life here can be messy, lonely, or difficult, but there is also warmth, kindness, and commitment.
The show opens tomorrow, September 6, 6-10pm in the City Gallery at the Harrison Center for the Arts.

If you have wondered why I have been strangely silent on this blog lately, I can tell you why. Friday my new show opens in the Harrison Center‘s City Gallery! I have been too busy to pop in here with regular inspiration and updates on the progress of my work. This show was a race to the finish (being my second solo show in four months!), but I am pleased with the outcome. I will be in the gallery all evening Friday for the opening, 6-9pm. I hope you will stop by and say hi, check out the work, and see Kyle Ragsdale’s show in main gallery as well.
Tonight is the second annual FOOD CON exhibition at the Harrison Center. It also happens to be Open Studio Night, so all the artist studios will be open, including mine! The opening runs from 5-9pm. Last year this even was amazing, so I highly recommend coming out. There will be lots of food and lots of art! Hope to see you there.
P.S. If you missed my show at the Earth House last month, come see the new work hanging in my studio tonight!

Above is a piece from my very first solo exhibition, which opens this Friday at the Earth House Collective in Indianapolis. I pushed to the last minute to complete the show, fourteen pieces in all.

In total the show consists of seven “paintings” (like those above) and seven sculptural works. All the artwork is framed in salvaged redwood frames (my dad saved it from a dumpster!) handmade by my two awesome parents.

The show opens Friday with a reception from 5-9pm. I would love to see you there! The Earth House is easy to find on the corner of New York and East Street downtown (look for the old church building.). I am nervous about the show and very excited.
Just a quick note to let you know my studio will be open tonight from 6-9pm for First Friday at the Harrison Center. Come say hi and check out Formtionality, the great furniture show that will be in the main gallery. Have a great holiday weekend!
