I FINALLY got around to decorating and firing some of the lidded tea bowls that I made a few months ago.

Here's one of my favorites: a bunny with radishes

if you want to see them all, I shared photos in my website's latest blog post

The little river town (Augusta, KY) that took me in , nurtured and encouraged me when I was a little baby artist-with a dream of making art my life, had a plein air painting event last friday.

I wanted to create something that captured all the gratitudeI have about that special little river town. I'm so glad I left the house--even when I was tired from a lot of travel.

I'm excited to reveal the artwork for this year's LIMESTONE CYCLING TOUR t-shirt. I was asked to make a design that included bicycles and downtown Maysville.

This woodcut design uses 3 colors - and white- to keep the t-shirt printing process simple -and in budget

If you'd like to to participate in this year's ride (and get one of their beautiful t-shirts) more information is available on their website:

We want to start off this #semester by making it clear that #students at #EKU make up the very demographics that are targeted by these policies, & that we do not stand for it. They can’t keep pushing us & expect us to be idle!

These policies are clearly #racist and #sexist and part of the #US’ decline into fascism and complicity in #genocide.

Starting with the repealing of all #DEI policies & specifically attacking #programs & #spaces on #campus meant to promote #diversity, the administration is trying to limit the ability of #nonwhite & #LGBTQ #students to express themselves or feel welcome on campus.

In addition to this, there was recently a #tuition increase, making the #campus which calls itself a “place of #opportunity” for first year #students from #Appalachia even more innaccessible to #workingclass people looking for an #education.
