Wood Exhibition

One thing I love about fall is that gallery shows start happening again after a quiet summer. There will be a show exhibiting wood work at Tempe Center for the Arts, in which I will be showing one of my pieces.

The opening will be September 8 from 7-9 pm, and the show will be up until January 5.

There will also be a panel discussion with some of the artists in the show November 1 from 6-8 pm, which will very interesting and exciting!

The Start of My Last School Year

It's been quite awhile since my last blog post! We have just begun the new school year, which I am excited, scared, happy and sad about all at the same time! I had a wonderful summer spending much needed time with my amazing and supportive boyfriend, teaching classes at Phoenix Center for the Arts, and working in my studio.

This is my final year of graduate school, and I'm looking forward to many things this year, including my THESIS SHOW, teaching 3D Design, meeting new grad students coming in, and thinking about what I'll be doing when I'm finished with grad school (which is sort of a scary thought).

This year is also nerve wracking because my thesis show is coming up sooo quickly (March 18-22). I'm sure I'll be ready by then (fingers crossed), but I have a lot of work to do! Let the stress begin!

Here are some images of new(ish) work that I finally got the chance to photograph.

Wall piece. Copper, brass, nickel silver, lithographs on metal.

Neckpiece. Sterling silver, brass, copper, enamel, photo decals.

I'll be busy in my studio, so I should have more to share soon! :)
