7/1/2016 0 Comments Belle Isle Art FairSummer is here and things are happening! I am excited to say that I will be achieving a long-term goal of mine by participating at an art fair. I will have a booth set up at the Belle Isle Art Fair on August 6th & 7th! Everyday since I was granted a slot has been an adventure! Creating with a purpose and end goal in mind is filling my days with joy and excitement! Belle Isle Art Fair August 6th 10am-7pm August 7th 11am-5pm To make canopy weights I worked with concrete which was a super fun and messy project. I also researched and searched for the best canopy and made my purchase today. I have lots of work ahead of me!

Be there! 620 Gratiot Ave, Saginaw, MI. 6/10/2014 0 Comments Amway GrandSince it is official... I will spill the beans! I just received a hosting agreement with The Amway Grand Plaza Hotel for ArtPrize! This is such an honor I am so blown away. The Amway is a must see venue of ArtPrize and the competition brought in 400,000 visitors last year! Last but not least... they gave me a whole room to do an installation! This is a huge opportunity for me to grow as an artist by way of experience and exposure. I am so grateful.

1/7/2014 0 Comments Gallery UptownI am all settled and living in Grand Haven, MI. I am eager to get my work exposed in my hometown.
I am entering the 17th Annual Juried Winter Arts Festival Exhibit at Gallery Uptown. I will be submitting Separated Landscape and Impermanence 2 on January 29th. Wish me luck! 11/17/2013 0 Comments Nearing The EndIt is hard to believe but I am almost done with student teaching and I will be graduating mid December! I officially finished the horizontal piece of three that I have been posting pictures of. I am almost done with another work. This one is more simple with a single vertical frame 4'x2.' I am so excited to put on the finishing touches. I am so excited to submit these pieces into an art gallery. I am confident in their potential but I know it may not be easy. I will be a little fish in the big pond of Grand Rapids.
