Webster Arts, Relationships, Four Seasons

Four Seasons, one in a series inspired by the Jeffersonian Grid of the United States, is a visual depictions of the relationship between farmers and their land. Farmers are acutely aware of how the soil will respond the weather.

Saint Louis Artists’ Guild, Ann Maritz Members’ Exhibit

Ice dying is easy and the results are fantastic – usually. The results can be steered, however they cannot be controlled. Ice melt meanders at its whim. Actually, results have been good for me, maybe luck? Or maybe it is the willingness to accept a wide range of intriguing colors.

Foundry Art Centre, Global Impact – Wake of COVID, Hands

Due to COVID 19 we must wash our hands more often and more thoroughly, we must be conscious of keeping them clean and COVID free. What a chore! And it is a scary time.

Stuck at home? Or we can use our hands to make opportunities to do projects that have been put off until we have more time, call friends we have not talked to for a while and create spaces where it is safe to visit in person.

The Foundry Art Centre in St. Charles, MO has produced an exhibit addressing this frustrating issue.

World Chess Hall of Fame, Featured Chess Set, Travel Chess Set

August is Bell Pepper month, appropriate timing for Travel Chess Set to be the Featured Set at the WCHOF – not sure how to pronounce that. We call it the Chess Museum, a small gem in the West End neighborhood of St. Louis. 

 

Viridian Gallery, 28th St, NYC, Silhouette

One hit wonder to have work in a New York City gallery – who knows – but I am thrilled! Viridian Gallery was posted on our MoFA Facebook page. So I gave it a try. Silhouette is in their virtual exhibit, Sanguine Expectations. Additional pieces of my work are on their artist’s page.
