Prints on Display at Bjava

There is still a chance to see my prints on display at Bjava Coffee and Tea at 5510 Lafayette Road.  My prints will be up through July 6h.  So, if you get a chance, stop by and enjoy a good cup of coffee and see what I have been printing.

Moving is Hard Work!

It took a couple of weeks to get everything moved our of our studio at the Murphy, but the exit was completed by April 30^th.  The problem was now I had everything at home and now it all needed to be organized.  I am somewhat compulsive about everything being organized and in its place and this has been difficult since I have so much STUFF.  We had gotten rid of most things extraneous but that still left a lot to be organized—so slowly but surely I have been finding the proper home for everything and getting it put away and labeled.  Yes, I want the draws and boxes labeled so that when you go to look for things you can find it quickly.  Still working on that—but getting there.  The attached picture is one wall of my new dining room studio—as you can see it is beginning to look somewhat organized!! 

New Prints at Garfield Parks Art Center

The Garfield Park Arts Center (GPAC) is hosting an Asian Arts & Artists Exhibition which opened on June 4th as a compliment to the annual Asian Fest presented by the Asian American Alliance. And, I have three of my little prints on display as part of the exhibition which continues through July 24th.

The image to the right is a close up of my print, Crescent Moon, which is my interpretation of the Issa haiku

Crescent moon--
bent to the shape
of the cold

If you haven’t had a chance to visit the Garfield Art Center, you really should add it your list of places to see wonderful art exhibits. And, they have a really beautiful gallery space.
