Included are many collaborative and cross-disciplinary projects.

A drawing; an extension of memory; memory externalized. Finding little drawings and makings…and I find my thoughts again. 💙

A space to play on a midweek night — how lucky. I applied for the Fire Station residency for the past several years, and am acutely familiar with the feeling associated with rejection letters, of all kinds. I’m sorry if that is your experience this year. Please visit on the open night in the future, and you are welcome to pick my brain on that topic…just to enjoy a bit of schadenfreude. And if you illustrate, or attended a workshop with me before, I hope to see you sooner 🤍 I aim to offer some participatory artistic sessions soon…ish.

Last week I coincidentally met the family who own the property in the background of this painting. When they described where they lived, I immediately knew that I painted the property. Again coincidentally, I had exactly one postcard in my bag…the one with that exact painting. I was happy to gift it to them. Such a lovely family. (I don’t remember who bought the original 🙏🏼).
