Busy in the studio

It has been quite busy in the studio lately!  I worked hard and long (and I mean really long!) to get a commission done. My friend, Cyndy Kempken, asked me to create a handbag for her with special pockets to meet her needs. The main challenges were using earthtones (not usually my thing) and working [...]

For some background on the event, I’m posting exactly what Lisa, the fabulous organizer of the event has to say: WHAT IS ONE WORLD [...]

At Long Last

A post! I’ve been a bad blogger. I can’t remember the last time I sat down and typed up a post. Well, I’ve been busy! No excuses here, just busy and not in a mood to share. But, I have a lot of art to share, so over the next few posts, I will share [...]
