"Painting is another way of keeping a diary." - Pablo Picasso
I'm currently teaching a class in textile-based artist trading cards. It's fun to see what the others do with the techniques I introduce. I've been finding them the ideal size for working out new ideas. I don't know where I am heading with these mini works of art, but that's the point. I am keeping it loose to see what shifts and settles.

is hung with bloom along the bough" -- A.E, Housman
“If you want to be happy, be.” -- Leo Tolstoy
I am one of the 18 artists featured in this upcoming book! It is hard to believe that what started 12 years ago as an experiment has brought me to this point. Very exciting!
