Love in a Time of Hate, or Fall in Love with Art 2017

"This is a story of love in a time of hate."
—Princess Amneris, Aida

Lately it's been hard to stay motivated to make new work, but I've realized that putting something beautiful in the world is one way to combat the ugliness of our current state of affairs. These four new mini collages, which I made just in time for my Friday open studio, are a small step in that direction.


Giving the gift of original art is a great way to say, "I love you," don't you think?


Miss Kinzie is resplendent in her pink and white, standing beside a little reminder to "open your heart."



Midge and Ken know that they are good together, just like the colors in the collage they're admiring.



Midge and Nikki want you to know that these mini collages are $20 each and come with an easel for display.





They also want you to know that Valentine's Day is a great time to celebrate a special friendship. If you and your BFF make a harmonic combination, why not let her know?

You can purchase these mini collages, in addition to many more pieces of original artwork, at my open studio this Friday. It's free and open to the public and light refreshments will be served. Here are all the details:
