Well, we have been getting some great press and I would like to thank the Garden Island Newspaper as well as Hawaii Stream for covering the event.  Check out their links for a quick preview of whats happening again this Saturday night Jan. 16th.  We are once again turning off the lights and plugging in the black light for an evening full of intrigue with Kauai’s own John Howard.  Rumor has it we will be accompanied by drummers and maybe even a trumpet?  Its so FUN!

KS promo photoIn 1983 when we moved to Colorado I took a watercolor class and knew I wanted to be an artist.  My Mom died that year, and my Dad gave me her paints and palette and so I worked in oils as well.  And then I worked in acrylics, and collage and clay.  Any medium works as long as I am experimenting and changing.  Composition and color are the most important to me.  I painted and sculpted masks and figures for years and am now moving more toward abstraction which I find very challenging.  But with four beautiful grandchildren, I am compelled to try and capture their little bodies in some form as well, so I continue drawing the human figure.

Besides showing at mainland galleries in California and Chicago, I designed and created individual “Spirit of Los Angeles” awards for the United Way of Greater LA by painting figures on paper, clay and tiles from 1994 to 2004.

I am currently returning to teaching with an after school art program at Wilcox Elementary.
