Weekly Update

I've just come off a fabulously relaxing weekend of much needed lady time...I had full intentions of getting in the studio but am glad I had the 2 days off (I am pregnant for goodness sake...!). I'll be in there this week prepping for the Philadelphia Open Studio Tours and starting some new sketches and whatnot. More on that below:

Current Exhibitions


Step Right Up...

Upcoming Exhibitions

In October...

My studio will be open to the public for 2 days as part of the 2009 Philadelphia Open Studio Tours. Come see the space I share with the fabulous Ms. Aubrie Costello.

My studio will be included on the Friends of CFEVA Guided Tour on October 4th, which is great for those of you who are not sure which studios to visit! More info can be found on the POST website


Fall 2009 Classes

My Sculptural Forms class at the Fleisher Art Memorial is up and running. Last week was our first week and everyone is doing fabulously. Unfortunately the The Introduction to Animal Sculpture Class through Pterodactyl Philadelphia didn't run this time, but I'll be offering another session in the spring so anyone who's interested, please let me know!

That's all for now...I'm off to deinstall the Fringe Fest installation!
