Am still working on finishing up the pieces for Vagabond, as well as my Fringe Fest Installation...in progress photos tomorrow! Never heard back from the vinyl letter people...jerks!
Fall 2009 Classes
The upcoming classes that I'll be teaching this fall are an Introduction to Animal Sculpture Class through Pterodactyl Philadelphia (to be held in my studio...come check it out!) and Sculptural Forms through the Fleisher Art Memorial. Can't wait!!!Now I must collapse from tiredness...I think all pregnant artists should be given atleast 3 assistants, paid for by our tax dollars. I vote yes to that...
My studio was chosen this year as one of the stops on the Friends of CFEVA Guided POST tour! See below flyer for details:
It's been a while but I am going to TRY to get back to a regular posting schedule thins week...we'll see...!
Current Exhibitions
I currently have a piece in the Fleisher Art Memorial Faculty Show...I haven't had a chance to see the show yet, but many fabulous artists work there so I'm sure it will be wonderful!

Opening Reception: Friday, September 4th 6-8pm The My Face in your Space show at Nexus is a pretty cool idea. To be included in the show, someone who's already in the show asks you to do a portrait of them and they do one of you. You can then ask anyone you want to be in the show, but again, you have to do a portrait of them and they have to do one of you. I was invited by my friend Molly Mullahy and am excited to see what she does!My Face in Your Space
