New books and Collagraphs



































































































This Christmas, I received three very inspiring books: one from my mother, one from my father and one from my husband. These three people never cease to encourage my creative pursuits. I cannot wait to begin working on 2D projects this year. I spend most of my creative time in my ceramic studio (see my work and space here) working in 3D, a bit of balance will be welcome and I think the two processes will feed one another.

Also, at the Arts Center where I teach, we have just begun collagraphs, and I have included two of my first prints. Check out my students' progress here. This process is so much fun and assessable to a wide range of ages and skill levels. I love that lovely prints can be created using found materials.

Paper chains!

We had a great time creating very unique snow globes and paper chains at the Arts Center! Kids, adults and even an infant enjoyed a cookie and art-fill evening.
