| Me at the virtual graffiti wall at Future Tenant Gallery's awesome Vacancy Fundraiser! |
 |
| A view of some of the art at Vacancy! |
 |
| "Oracle" and "Sister Moon" between two Vacancy attendees! |
 |
| A page (in progress) for my 'zine for Light Grey Art Lab's Stacks exhibition, which will open August 1st! |
 |
| Another double-spread, in-progress glimpse of pages from the 'zine that is destined for Minneapolis in July for the August exhibition! |
 |
| I'm so excited to be part of the artists who will create 'zines for the Light Grey Art Lab's exhibition, "Stacks"! My year is 1988, and as I begin working on the 'zine, I'll provide some glimpses! |
 |
| Working on The Blair Mountain Comic for Cartoon Picayune! |
 |
| An in-progress page! |
 |
| Me, at the drafting table. I can't work without my reading glasses now. Gah! :-) Nope, that's not an optical illusion. My hair is indeed purple in the front. |
 |
| Working steadily on the Blair Mountain Comic between copyedting manuscripts! |
 |
| My tiny daffodils are blooming...a sure sign of spring! |
 |
| Shortly, the living room will smell fantastic, since the hyacinths will be blooming soon. |
 | |
| My lunch: a mustard green-hemp-seed-almond milk smoothie, with turmeric (which is why my thumb is slightly yellow....still not sure how that happened.) |
 |
| Front and center is Women in Water: Miss Quentin Compson; "Sister Moon" is to the right, and pages for my Blair Mountain comic are all around. |
 | |||||
| Remember "The Dream Chair"? I painted it back in 2012, and I was working on a hand embroidered upholstery cover....like, forever. I'm still working on that embroidery. However, I started thinking about putting it in the Women in Water exhibition, and while the fabric here is not what I'll be using, there is something equally cool that is being printed at Spoonflower right now. Details to come once I start the upholstery process. |
 |
| Working on framing two works..... |
 |
| "Oracle" and "Sister Moon" are all framed and ready to go to the Vacancy Fundraiser for Future Tenant Gallery! |
 |
| I'm so excited to be the cover image for the Spring 2014 issue of Your Impossible Voice! Above is a screen capture of their site. Hard copies are on the way in the mail, and as soon as they arrive, I will take pics! |
 |
| "Loretta & Pies in the Sky" is also part of The Boiler Journal's art section! A screen capture of the pdf file available online is just above. You can check out the whole issue here: http://theboilerjournal.com/ |
 | |
| "Magic Snail" has returned from Hudson, NY's awesome Limner Gallery, where it was part of February's "Small Works" exhibition. It is now for sale in my Etsy shop. You can see a close-up by clicking on this sentence. |
 |
| The delightful mess on my studio table. Is that an issue of ClothPaperScissors under that heap of stuff? Why, yes it is! |
 |
| Things happen with wine in my studio on Friday afternoons. :-) |
 | |
| Right now, I'm working on a graphic story of The Battle of Blair Mountain for the Cartoon Picayune. Here is page 1....inking is underway! |
 |
| I'm honored to have "Corrine and the Far Away" from the Women in Water Series as the cover image for Issue #3 of Your Impossible Voice. You can see Corrine is the keynote image on YIV's Twitter account! :-D |
 |
| The mirror twins pillows are stuffed! |
 |
| Michael gave Fred a shave, and he seemed to enjoy it, as seen by his chipper expression. |
 |
| ....but when Daddy got him wet, Fred's enthusiasm for the enterprise deflated, as seen here. |
 |
| For my fall exhibition at York Arts, I am making Women in Water character pillows. Below, is "Freckled Mrs. Goldsmith," and above, "Loretta and Pies in the Sky," is based on a drawing that will appear in the next issue of The Boiler Journal. |
 |
| My supervisors this morning are asleep at the helm....as usual.... :-) |
 |
| So I am laying out & inking up draft pages for my Blair Mountain graphic story, which I am creating for The Cartoon Picayune. |
 |
| I'm making a foray into something entirely new.....also part of the Women in Water theme, but this time, in full color. This work is in progress right now. I'll follow up with new pics when it's all done. |
 |
| Been working on pillows for the October exhibition at York Arts. The fabric on the front is from my "Loretta and Pies in the Sky" drawing from the Women in Water series. |
 |
| The back of the pillow....using some pretty fabric from my late Aunt Anne's fabric stash. |
 |
| I've designed some new fabric at Spoonflower, using more drawings from my Women in Water Series. Here "Freckled Mrs. Goldsmith" will eventually be sewn into a character pillow for the October exhibition at York Arts. |
 |
| Working on a new Woman in Water drawing....I'm thinking the title will be something like "Hardtack Sally" (hardtack refers to the hard pretzel-like food men kept on them during the Civil War) |
 |
| My mixed media work, "Oracle: New Phases, New Moons" will be part of Future Tenant Gallery's charity raffle this spring....details will follow soon! |
 |
| New exhibition upcoming in York, Pennsylvania in October...details to follow soon! |
