Flag Books for Flag Day at the Manhattan Beach Library!
It was a great pleasure to lead a Flag Bookmaking program on Flag Day at the Manhattan Beach Library!
Due to a fabulous donation of designer wallpaper samples,
I was able to offer a mix of exotic materials to the participants to work with!
And they employed them…
in all kinds of different ways, making use of their colors, textures, patterns and imagery
to enhance and enrich their books!
Different makers used the same pattern…
in different ways!
A wide variety of pre-cut “flag pages” were available and used creatively.
Maker Stacy Wong shared her completed Flag Book, which she further developed after the program!
A truly colorfully creative time was had by ALL!
Hopes and Fears and…
From 2020 to the present moment.
I HOPE this is not forever, I FEAR it might be…but I HOPE not.
HOPE springs eternal, FEAR springs infernal.

White & Texture & Paper & Fiber
I am thrilled to be participating in two show on opposite coasts which aim to share artworks that center on some of my specific interest in artmaking.
“White & Texture” at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod:
“Subtitled Monochrome Unity, we invited artists to explore the profound subtleties and striking complexities of using white as the driving color and how texture within the white and informs the execution and the narrative of an artwork. We wanted them to explore the effect of this limitation – without a “conventional” color palette.”

“Paper & Fiber: Fourth Annual Show” at 1202 Contemporary in Gilroy, California:
“1202 Contemporary proudly presents its 4th annual Paper + Fiber show, celebrating two mediums that women artists have traditionally used for centuries, but have always been considered “craft,” or less than fine art. Uplifting and supporting artists who have worked in textile, fiber, and/or paper mediums, this exhibition centers and hones in on the theme of figure.”
