March is a Busy-Fun month! I am happy to announce that I am the recipient for the Susan Cooley Gilliom Residence and Teaching Program sponsored by the Placer Community Foundation and hosted at Blue Line Arts Gallery in Roseville, CA. This is a wonderful opportunity for me to share and teach my earth friendly Art processes and techniques. I will be in residence for three full weeks at the gallery from March 10 through March 31, giving talks, two workshops and also working daily in the Education Gallery/Studio. There will be an Opening Reception on March 18, 4-8 PM, where I will give a talk and tour of my Art works. The first workshop, on mineral painting, will be held March 25 & 26, while the second workshop, covering the use of raw clay slips and mineral paints on clay, will be held March 28, 29 & 30. There are more details to come soon. What an exciting time! Please come join me during March.
