Spring is almost here! And it is finally beginning to feel a bit like spring here in Brooklyn. I am very ready for nicer weather. Here is a new springtime drawing I've just finished. A print, as always, available in the Etsy shop.
I have work at the "Homemade Brooklyn" pop-up shop this weekend in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Come by March 12th-March 14th, 11am-8pm to check out the shop, which will be full of work from Brooklyn-based artists, designers and craftspeople. It is at Kill Devil Hill at 170 Franklin Street, Brooklyn. There is also an opening party Friday, March 12th 6pm-11pm.
I've been working on a fun little project- making new cat pillows! I had to figure out how to block print on fabric for these, and there was a lot of trial and error involved. I am getting the hang of it now. I'm currently trying to save up for a sewing machine, but in the meantime I am getting pretty good at sewing by hand. These are different than the ones I used to make not only because they aren't silkscreened, but also because they have fun decorative patterned fabrics on their reverse side instead of another cat image. You can check them out as I begin to list them in my Etsy shop.
Happy February! I am in a couple of shows this month. The first opens this Friday at Three Graces Gallery in Portsmouth, NH. I have eight pieces in the Teeny Tiny Art Show there February 5th through March 1st. You can check out all the work in the show on Three Graces' Flickr page. I'm excited that some of my very tiny canvases are in this show, as well as some of my smaller works on paper.
Also later this month I will have two pieces in this year's Fresh StART event at Arena 1 Gallery in Santa Monica, CA. I'll post more about that event closer to the event date.
