I do not currently have a permanent studio at the Torpedo Factory, but I will be subletting a studio for a 2-week "micro-residency."
Come see me in Studio 17 from May 28 - June 11, where I'll be working on new pieces and have original paintings available for purchase.
(contact me for specific studio hours).
Recently I visited the house and gardens at Dumbarton Oaks, an historic estate hidden away in residential Georgetown in Washington, D.C. I was awe-struck by the grounds, so tree-covered among the hills that you forget you're not in the middle of the countryside!
I took several weeks in June and July and experimented with acrylics on raw canvas for the first time. I mostly work on wooden panel and paper in my current practice, and it's been years since I worked on canvas.
After nearly 4 years, I am finally re-exploring florals in a full collection!
