I recently took a week-long online workshop with abstract artist Judy Woods (New Zealand) Pros: • Great to learn and try another artist’s process, and experiment in new ways • Judy's bonus handout on "Finding Your Visual Language’ very helpful to me! • FUN to do it with a friend and compare notes and share thoughts and experiences (Lydia!) Judy provides low-cost workshops and other opportunities to learn with her several times a year.

SUNDAY, November 13 - The Stable Gallery Opening Reception Thanks to all my friends and family for your wonderful support and encouragement! I wish I had taken better pictures of the whole show, but here are a few of my pieces along with my good friend Carolyn and Evan. It was a ton of fun! I loved meeting new people, fellow artists, and talking about our art! I learned a lot for the next show and we all sold some pieces. Win-win-- Hallelujah!

TUESDAY, November 15 - Artist Reception at AtlantiCare Medical Arts Pavilion, Atlantic City, NJ Fellow Springboarder Emily Gilman-Beezley and I headed to Atlantic City, NJ for an artists’ reception and ribbon-cutting ceremony of AtlantiCare's new Medical Arts Pavilion. Along with many other New Jersey artists, our work is featured on their office walls, corridors and spaces as part of AtlantiCare’s Healing Arts Program. What an honor! They treated us like royalty. It was great to meet the organizer, Cheryl Broschard, in person and get to know some of the other artists. I received incredible feedback on my work—totally worth the almost 6-hour round trip!   Emily (holding me up) in front of her beautiful work! :)
Here are a few of the new pieces I completed in time for the show (many still in progress). My new process includes embellishing traditional and archival digital paintings with collaging of paper, beads, and quilling.
 "To Life" 8 x 8, Mixed Media on Archival Digital Painting  Purr-Tater, my faithful studio companion!  In last year or so, one client acquired three of my digital paintings for his corporate office in Shelton, CT. With each piece, we discussed his color preferences, thoughts, and sizes. I then shared several design ideas with him, and he selected these! The goal was to come up with unique, yet harmonious and complimentary designs for his space. He opted for shiny metal prints, which have a modern, glossy, glass-like finish. I’m so happy to hear that he LOVES them and his clients and co-workers are stunned by the pop of color when they walk in his office! The selections he chose are below. (Note- This office image is for illustration purposes only, courtesy of Pixabay. Artwork is mine).  "Colored Waters" - 17" x 40", metal print  "Blue Depths" - 17" x 40"  "Complex Blues" - 26" x 26" Please contact me to discuss if my artwork may be a good choice

Let the flowers begin! • What's your favorite flower?
• What's a new thing that's happening in your life? "Look, the winter is past, and the rains are over and gone. The flowers are springing up, the season of singing birds has come, and the cooing of turtledoves fills the air."
