A few weeks ago I had another week-long stint working in the Torpedo Factory, this time in a huge studio on the third floor.
It was overlooking the Alexandria Waterfront on the Potomac River, and the views did not disappoint!
I did my best to not be distracted by the boats all day long, though, and started a series of floral works paper.
These pieces, along with a few others, will be released later in August. Sign up for my newsletter to be the first to hear!
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!
