I'm so pleased to be offering a watercolor workshop during my show at Remarkable Dinner! First a bit about the show: You can see {and purchase} my art in the back section of the diner from September 29 to mid November.  This work has a theme.   I have always loved to travel, and I was so fortunate to take two amazing trips this year.  In the Spring I spent a week in Istanbul, Turkey, and this summer I spent 3 weeks hiking the Camino de Santiago in Spain and Portugal with my 15 year old son, Sam.   Both trips had transformative powers in the way I viewed the world around me and myself.  The artwork in this show, Camino:  Visual stories of outward and inward travel , was created after returning this summer (2024).  There are two distinct sides.  The outward travel is represented by watercolor sketches that involved this summer out of a daily practice of painting.  The inner journey is represented by the more abstract multimedia pieces which involve exploring the use of many materials

 I thought I might start putting out into the world a weekly collection of art I have created.  I'm not including writing, marketing, preparation for events, brainstorming or events.  This is just the artwork I have created this week.  There is no accompanying commentary or description.  But if you see something that you are curious about or interested in, I welcome direct email communication.  With no further adieu, a peak into my studio. . .
