Back at the blog...


Well, it has been a minute...most of my blurbs have been coming via twitter and facebook, but it feels like I should be blogging again too.

Recent developments have me in the studio creating lots of clocks in preparation for the 2012 Summer Art Market at the Art Student's League of Denver www.asld.org.This is a wonderful annual market featuring about 200 Colorado artists, all of them members of the League, some of them faculty at the League, some students, and a lot of professional artists, like me. I am excited about this year's show, as this is the best collection of my work that will be exhibited in the 8 or so years that I have done this market. Each year, i feel like I have grown my art and refined my process. The market is June 9 and 10 on the blocks surrounding the League at 200 Grant St. in Denver. This year is the 20th annual Summer Art Market. Most patrons have said that this show is Denver's best...better than the Cherry Creek Art's Fest...it is pretty dang awesome.

Congratulations to Hazel & Dewey for winning Westword magazine's 2012 Best of Denver award for Best Kitchen Shop. Jenna has accomplished so much since she opened last July. Her store is amazing and truly one of the best shops of any kind in the state. She liked my clocks since the get-go and has been selling them quickly since she opened up. www.hazel-dewey.com

I was invited last summer to create a mask for the Mask Project to benefit Denver Hospice. This invitation was sentimental to me as my mother has been under the care of Denver Hospice since last summer and the nurse she has is doing a great job. Each year, the Mask Project raises thousands of dollars for hospice care through an auction of masks created by artists from all over. This year I was asked to make a clock mask and  it was a fun challenge and I am proud of the result. Most of the masks will be on display at the Cherry Creek Mall in Denver starting in mid April through mid May. The bidding can be done live or online. Please visit themaskproject.org for all of the details.


Thanks for keeping up with me and enjoy this wonderful Spring!
