I will be teaching a class about teaching encaustics on Sat June 6, at 2pm at the Third Annual Encaustic Conference in Beverly MA. I am packing and getting ready to fly to the east coast on Thurs and am very excited to see everyone and join the buzz and fun of the conference. I will have some small paintings with me(see below) for sale. Catch me during the conference..(I can take credit cards..)

I have been working on a new series called Array, more grid based pieces. This new series is a slightly new direction for me.

I have some great shows lined up for 2009.

• Including a SOLO show in San Francisco at A Woman's Eye Gallery, opening November 6. My work will be in a group show in June at Himmelberger Gallery downtown SF as well.


• In July Judith and Lobos and I are driving up to the Bellevue Arts Museum show up in Washington, it was a fabulous show last year!


• The Turchin Art Center in Boone NC has invited me to show with about 5 other artist including Mary Farmer and Mary Black in November


• I was invited by curator Sandi Miot to show in Waxing Philosophical, in Marin at the Marin Community Foundation July-November...

Just a little bit of my schedule..

This year I also curated Tangible Wax in Chicago and was the juror for Working in Wax at the Bedford Gallery in Walnut Creek. I will be giving a lecture June 10 at 10 am about the show.
