A New Place to Roost

Today was a fun one. My friend Crystal and I spent the morning hanging some of my artwork in a new home, The Art Coop at 425 Market Place Antiques here in Roswell, Georgia. This new space feels good. The other artists and owners are so warm and friendly. And who doesn't like being surrounded by art and antiques?


I selected several pieces featuring cars, eye glasses, chairs, and elephants (for good luck!)


I am really excited about this space, as I will also be able to use it to have some workshops and classes in the near future.

It's fun starting something new, especially with the encouragement of friends. Sometimes putting myself out there leaves me feeling a little exposed, but sharing the experience with friends gives me courage. I'm so thankful for all the opportunities and friendships that have come my way since I decided to put my energy into art.

Making things just makes things better.
