April 2026

Just got back home again and am digging out after teaching 18 workshops in Key West, Marco, Naples, Bonita, Sanibel, Boca Grande and Vero Beach, each ranging from 1 to 3 days. I also exhibited at 3 art fairs in Naples and showed 24 pieces in a 2 month long show at Marco Center for the Arts in an incredible space that I shared with 2 other artists, a photographer and a fiber artist. Sales were good and many paintings found their homes. Needless to say, it has been an exciting and successful year, so far.

I teach next week at Hoosier Art Salon, New Harmony, Indiana. See CLASSES for details.

And I am looking forward to be showing at Broad Ripple Art Fair here in Indianapolis in May and again in September at Penrod Art Fair. I also show in early July and August at the Petoskey Antiques Show. There is a small one day show in Frankfort, Michigan that I like to participate in as I have so many long term clients that I call friends. It is on a Wednesday in July. See my SHOWS section for specific dates.

I head to Vermont to teach a couple of workshops in early June. I always look forward to my time in Vermont, as I spent many years up in Stowe while studying with Frank Mason in his summer painting workshops. I returned for 11 summers to study with Mason because my work progressed each year. There is no place that you could get that information and knowledge at that time, and being in my late 30s, the time was right in my life and I am so thankful that I made that choice. It has been 30 years ago, and now I teach and sell my work throughout the country. I value the energy and the time that I spent to study with Mason, and I appreciate the opportunities and the career that has evolved. It was indeed time and money well spent.

I will be teaching again on Cape Cod in August. Returning to California in October. For dates and more info, go to CLASSES.

Last year I had seasonal shows on a Thursday afternoon, and I am not sure if I am doing that or not. So email if you want to come by the studio to see new work to be sure that I am here.

Stay tuned.

Have a great summer. Talk soon.
