Open Studios Weekend

Come visit from 12-5 Saturday and Sunday, 
November 21 & 22. 

Over 70 artists and artisans in two buildings.

Stop into the Sandpaper Factory at 83 East Water Street in Rockland, MA. Enter through the left side door and you'll find me at the top of the stairs on the 4th floor!

It's that time of year again and we are all scrambling to get ready for Open Studios which is next Saturday and Sunday from 12-5. 

There are many new artists in the Sandpaper Factory and our new owner and steward, Alan, has really spruced up our building with siding and new windows. 
Bring your family and friends and have a blast. Maybe pick up something wonderful for someone on your Christmas list!

This is a little painting I did a few weeks back while visiting my friend Bobbi Heath at her cool house in Maine. 

This weekend in New Hampshire to celebrate my nephew Ryan's 12th (gasp)birthday. 
Guess what he got from his Auntie?

Girls Just Wanna Paint

"Nerf"

Although we don't focus on tough topics, we don't shy away from them either. 

October's topic was "gun".

Some of us had trouble figuring out a way to portray this subject but, there are many possible interpretations of any given topic, and as usual, the Girls came through.

A last minute conversation with my young nephew in which he exuberantly shared the details of the "coolest" nerf gun he had picked up at a yard sale for $1, reminded me that I could work the lighter side of this "loaded" subject. Pun intended.

We all carry a psychological burden just from witnessing horrific acts of murder and increasing gun violence in our culture. 

I don't have any answers but I remember the victims.
