“The Art of Flowers” what a lovely closing reception and artists’ talk for this stunning exhibition. Thank you Ann Hazels and Bree Karpavage for trusting my vision and allowing me to try something new. Flowers are such a beautiful gift, I really enjoyed being a part of an exhibition that celebrates them. 🌼

“Canopy” glass and metal, private residence. Sunning in the evening hours, this piece was so fun to visit. Living with art is such an incredible experience. This sculptural shade covering changes color and feel, as the day progress into evening and shifts between seasons.
