This spring has been very busy for me. I have been working on the application process for Portland Open Studios. It is a local self guided tour of 100 artist studios in the Portland Area. You can visit www.portlandopenstudios.com soon to see the 2009 artist.
I am working hard to create a new body of work for a show I am having in June at the Guardino Gallery (www.guardinogallery.com) and for a show I will be in at the Museum of North West Artist (www.museumofnwart.org).
This will be my first museum show so I am really nervous.
I had the fun oppertunity to participate in a local fundraising event at a great independant art store here in portland. Peter, of Muse Art+ Design (www.museartanddesign.com) has put together An Artist A Day. Each day, every day in April, a new artist comes and paints in the store. All paintings are for sale and the proceeds go to purchase art supplies for Portland classrooms. You can check out pics of the artists who have painted so far at: www.museartanddesign.com.
I had a great time chatting with Peter and all the artist coming in that day to purchase art supplies. I really think Portland has the friendliest artist.
Well I will leave you with pics of two new paintings. Enjoy!
