without a doubt, I fit the definition of a struggling artist, scrambling to find the way
to support me and my girls with my art/ my passion!!!

this desire regularly brings me to a state of frenzy ~ I work on one project, but then move to another project that may be more profitable and then abandon everything to explore a new inspiration!? or maybe my time is better spent making dresscards?!??! did someone mention ADHD???
(oh & did i mention groceries, girl taxi service, bills, paycheck jobs...)
green dress - mixed media on transfer (5x7) |
Now I am not unique, many know this story, but as I was beginning to sink into hopelessness, I realized that I need to get my art out there before I jump ship. I have many, MANY unfinished projects, and not a lot out in the world ~ but that changes NOW!

I am happy to announce that some of my most recent works are NOW on exhibit at
And there is A LOT going on at FSFA ~ tonight is the opening of 'materialize', Lisa Barthelson and Denise Driscoll, as well as the Fountain Street Studios' open studios, not to mention FSFA's 8x8 member exhibit ~ so much art in one spot, and now some of my work has joined the fray!!!
mixed media and sewing on subscription cards |
detail of loose threads |
These pieces represent the many different 'interests' that i have been obsessed with these past months - subscription cards, transfers, photographs, . . . as I matted these works I realize that each of them speaks to me. This is confusing as well as significant, as I have a show at Fountain Street Fine Art this October, and I am wondering/thinking/curious about what I am going to show?!?!? so we will see ~
just in time for mother's day!!! |
I am also delighted to say I finally finished more dresscards ( for some reason this was a daunting task) but I now have a good supply which I am distributing to those who want them ~
