Are we there yet?
I am finishing up my blogging from A-Z 2022 where I started, in Arizona. Apache County starts with A, La Paz County ends with Z. [...]
Yellowstone National Park is in north western Wyoming. I visited in 1995, and was fascinated by Old Faithful [...]
In addition to the in-person Superfine Seattle show, I have an online exhibition opening May 7 on Shoebox Arts. I will be showing paper weavings of Los Angeles traffic [...]
I wasn't planning on taking this piece to Superfine Seattle because the frame is damaged. But then this happened [...]
I haven't done much with the photos I took last fall on a road trip from LA to upstate NY and back. One thing I did this trip was take exterior and interior shots of the motel rooms. [...]
I've created a lot of art inspired by Texas. These are images from the eastern side. [...]
At last! The Superfine Seattle Art Fair is happening, May 12-15, 2022. [...]

The purple silk satin originated from a dressmaking commission, a prom dress for Nola. [...]
I have been fascinated by this "lake" for years. It is actually water in a gravel pit. [...]
Most of this year's A-Z art journey has me looking at older artwork. This is something new! Kumihimo is a Japanese braiding technique that I learned earlier this year. [...]
I started the Jam Portraits series after my dad passed away in March 1996. I was in residency at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts and had a half-finished jar of jam that he and my mom had made. I then painted after every serving on my daily breakfast toast. [...]
My first map pieces were created in 2001. My concept was to use one of my road photos inserted into the state shape, a map of the region, and a handwritten scrap with the location. [...]
One of my obsessions while road tripping is hay bales. Perhaps because they impose a geometric pattern onto the landscape. [...]

When you enter El Paso southbound on I-10, you get a close up view of a barrio in Cuidad Juarez. [...]
In 2014, I did a very long road trip, circumnavigating the contiguous US. I crowdfunded the journey, and one of the rewards was an 8x5" ink sketch, drawn from life. I ended up mostly sketching breakfasts! [...]
This month, I will be blogging my way through the alphabet, as part of the Blogging from A to Z Challenge. With each letter, I am going to feature something about my art work. Just like last year, today is Arizona day (because AZ, get it?). [...]
I'm baaaack with the A-Z Challenge! I had so much fun framing A-Z through my art last year, I'm doing it again! [...]
Whew! A month of daily art posts, mostly written the day before the letter was due. My mission to become comfortable with this blogging platform was achieved. [...]
