The energy of the crowd was electric at this year's preview party for the 46th Annual Academy of Notre Dame de Namur Invitational Fine Art Show and Sale in Villanova, PA. Hundreds of art enthusiasts graced the Tudor Revival-style mansion built in 1893.

So happy to share that my mixed media painting, "Color Me Gorgeous," has a new home! This wonderful family started their collection with one of my floral minis, and now owns a yummy 24" x 30" mixed media floral bursting with color and feelings of happiness!

UPDATE: Sold and now living in Australia. I love snail mail, patterned socks, crunchy Cheetos and polka dots! I mean, who doesn't like 'dots? I have been working on a series of small floral mini oil paintings, all with polka dotted backgrounds.  They are the most fun to paint! 

Spring City Mill Studios in Spring City, PA is now open to visitors every third Saturday from noon until 5 pm.  The very first Third Saturday Open Studios took place in July and was a huge success!

What an honor to have a painting in the Goggleworks Center for the Arts 12th Annual Juried Exhibition. Many thanks to gallery director Lauralynn White for all of her hard work.

Last month, I showed with painters Maryanne Buschini and Sue Biebuyck plus ceramicist Judy DeSimone and jeweler Hattie Weselyk as we celebrated First Friday by hosting a Pop-Up Art Show at the beautiful Galer Winery in Kennett Square, PA.

Delivering my 60 x 48 inch sunflower painting, Showstopper, to The State Museum of Pennsylvania came with a freight elevator, a white-glove curator and a pinch-me photo.

On Mondays, I paint with Georganna Lenssen at the Wayne Art Center.  I've been painting flowers for so long that I thought it would be fun to try my hand at cows.
