Little Things at Guardino Gallery

Come see my all new Little Things at Guardino Gallery starting on November 28. This is a show where all the art fits in the palm of your hand!

Artists were given the challenge to create artwork that fits within a 7" x 7" square/cube. With over 30 artists participating, you'll see hundreds of unique and affordable art works in one beautiful gallery.


New Workshops For 2009


I've just added new dates through January 2009. My Beyond Basics series has been so popular that I've expanded some of the offerings to include additional techniques.

The two newest classes are Crackle Finish (December 14) and Stencils & Embossing (January 11) based on the class I'll be teaching next year at the International Encaustic Conference in Massachusetts.. You can view a full description of these classes on my workshops page.


What's New on the Blog?

PULSE Report - In this report from my marathon painting event for charity, 40 artists created work in 8 hours to be auctioned off at the end of the night. No pressure!
