museum show is almost here

A quick update about the show opening on Saturday at the CCA. Last week we started hanging and now it's almost done! Thanks to Nicole and the expert installation staff, it looks great. They make it look easy, and let me tell you, that's some feat with the 130+ pieces I brought in. I wish I had some photos of how we packed the hallway with stuff. This is one brain addled waddling pregnant lady who could have never done it on my own, so much appreciation.

I peeked in the other gallery rooms and the other shows look intriguing. Can't wait to see it all done. After all of this, I'm really looking forward to celebrating Saturday evening!

the dates, for real

For those of you interested in the upcoming show, the dates have been extended. And it also should be mentioned the dates are, um, incorrect on my website. Working on that.

So anyway, just for the record, the show is slated to open June 28th with lots of fine drink, snacks, and revelry, and has now been extended through November 30.

oh hello there

In a forest pitch dark, lived the tiniest spark! That Bjork line goes through my head every time I step outside now. The garden's growing and I have a lot of work to do.

PS Is it just me or does Blogger wash out images? Hmm, not so in love with that.

upcoming show

Hey, I thought I added a post about this, but now I don't see it! Anyway, exciting news, even worth repeating twice. I have a show coming up at the museum in town, the California Center for the Arts. I'm organizing my work, figuring out what to show, how to show it, and feeling very energetic and a little nervous. We're going to call it Little Drawings I think. Yay! It opens Saturday June 28th, save the date!

elephant in a thistle

I picked up some art from an old show at the city gallery this weekend. I made the elephant with Sam when we were painting together with non-toxic kid paints on newsprint. We cut our pictures out and I stuck mine on some sixty year-old paper I had lying around. And cardboard, because I like to recycle.
