Really enjoyed working on this commission the early part of this year. It was fun to complete this family’s portrait set. They are the best.

I’m excited to share this new painting, “Among the Petals.” It will be part of the Women Out West Juried Online Exhibition and Sale which is live as of today, Oct 21. Link is in my bio.

“Among the Petals”
Oil on Panel — 8” x 10” (Framed: 13.25” x 15.25”)
Statement: An invitation to pause and honor the stage of becoming. This painting reflects on what it means to hold onto innocence and dwell in the delicate space between what has been and what is yet to come.

Such a fun Gesture Night with at . These are my favorite nights.

I am currently interested in the idea of how studying the long poses helps your study of the short poses, and vice versa. I have seen this to be the case in my own work. Maybe you have too?

Always grateful to be painting from life.

These two works will be at for tonight’s opening of Women in Art. The theme for the show is “I Am Not Afraid of Storms” and is intended to reflect the courage and resilience of women navigating their creative journey.
