Happy New Year and 2023 Year in Review

Happy New Year! I read somewhere that it’s a good practice to pause and reflect on the previous year, so I’ll do that here and celebrate some highlights with you. Here we go in no particular order:

  • I had the chance to be interviewed on two podcasts: Red House with musician and music producer Tyler Nail and Free Pizza with photographer Daniel White.
  • My work was juried into ArtFields in Lake City, SC. Experiencing the closing festivities there was a highlight for me and my family.
  • One of my paintings travelled to Kyrgyz Republic as part of the US Department of State’s Art in Embassies program.
  • Saatchi Art featured my painting Of Stones and Earth and Air in their gallery.
  • And the two I am most proud of: I won the Pilot Mountain Trail Marathon women’s division, and I worked from March to December on building up to 10 consecutive pull-ups!

Now I’m focusing on getting work ready for my upcoming exhibit in High Point, NC. My show opens at the Art Gallery at Congdon Yards on Thursday January 25th, 5-7:30pm. I’m showing paintings, video, sound and sculpture. Scroll down for a peek at what I’m up to in the studio.
