Demo at Lakefront Art Festival

At the Lakefront Art Festival in Michigan City, Indiana I was promoting my class that I am teaching at the Lubeznik Center of Art. Here I am doing a monoprinting demo. For more information on other classes I am teaching please visit www.lubeznikcenter.org

Maps of My Mind

I recently showed some of my collage prints and drawings at Studio Art Classes in Mishawaka, Indiana. The exhibit was from August 14- Sept. 4, 2009. Here are is an idea of the set up for my artwork.

Hannah's House


Hannah's House in Mishawaka, Indiana is a maternity home that provides shelter, programming, and staff support for pregnant teenagers and women that do not have any place to go during this time in their life. My coworker, Christin Hammond, asked me to volunteer my time to paint this tree in the hallway at Hannah's House. Her idea is to have leaf-shaped plaques created and engraved with the baby's names that lived there to place on the limbs of the tree. I am happy to have volunteered and really loved how the tree turned out. I hope to get pictures of the tree with the leaves on it soon.
