Grass-fed Beef article in April 2010 issue of New Hampshire Magazine:
Here's a link in case you missed it. It's a piece I wrote and illustrated about growing grass-fed beef cattle in New Hampshire. Let me know what you think!
Upcoming Shows in 2010:
I've been invited to be part of a group show at Millbrook Gallery & Sculpture Garden in Concord New Hampshire from September 17 through November 14th entitled, "The Four-leggeds." The opening reception is scheduled for September 19, 2010 from 1 to 5 pm. I'll remind you again when it gets closer of course! Click here for more info.
And this just in: I'm going to exhibit some of my work at the Vermont Institute of Natural Sciences from September 5th through October 3rd. This raptor rehabilitation center does great work caring for injured birds and I've painted several of their resident hawks and owls before.
And of course my Annual Open Studio will happen sometime in October. Other stuff is in the works but details have not been firmed up enough to post here yet. Please sign up for my e-mail newsletter to get electronic notices or if you prefer actual mail, include your address too.
New Hampshire Home Illustration:
I'm very happy wth the way my piece looked in the November 2009 issue of New Hampshire Home Magazine! I was quite honored to be able to illustrate the lovely essay by Sy Montgomery, who has had a big influence in my life --
she was not only my journalism professor in grad school but also helped me get my first post-grad job at the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests. I consider her a dear friend and of course, an amazing writer and naturalist.
I'm calling this piece "A Day Like No Other." It has recently been sold.
Thanks as always for your interest and support!
Older but Still Cool News:
<< Here I am standing in front of my painting, "Raven Frees the Light" in the Currier Museum of Art, in Manchester. NH in January 2009.
One of my life goals has been to see one of my paintings hanging in this world-class museum, so I guess I can check that one off! It was a very uplifting experience. Can't wait to do it again!
WMUR-TV featured me on an episode of “New Hampshire Chronicle”which aired Wednesday, May 21, 2008. How cool is that? I'm now officially multi-media. Tiffany Eddy came to my studio and interviewed me about my work and life. Quite a thrill! See it by clicking here.
This is exciting: My painting, "Black Bear People Are Dreamers III” was juried into the 2008 Art of the Animal Kingdom XIII! This was my first national wildlife art show and I am so honored to have my work selected for the show by none other than wildlife artist-rock star John Seerey-Lester. The show was held at the Bennington Center for the Arts in Bennington, VT.
And if that wasn't cool enough, in May 2008 New Hampshire Magazine named me one of their “Renaissance Women" for 2008. Here's a pdf of the piece. Thanks to Rick Broussard and Susan Laughlin for making me sound and look so good! It was quite an honor and I am in some great company.
