Getting ready for”Being Between- Exploring Liminal Experiences Through Drawing and Painting in Florence, Al. Opening Nov 7th. #worksonpaper #disruptedmilitaryspouses

The Art of Hello and Goodbye is going to Cimarron National Works on Paper - August- Dec. Hello and Goodbyes, or Hail and Farewells happen often for military. Spouses are throw together, forming community. I am fascinated with the way these inform our identities. #worksonpaper #contemporarydrawing

Books- reading 10 books at once. They’re in the kitchen, studio, living room, bedroom…These are next to my “thinking chair.” (I’m enjoying Robert Hughes collection of essays. I’m trying “women who run with wolves.”) Anyone have similar problems? #studioreading #bookseverywhere #booksrbetterthannews

When the world seems to be closing in on you, when it’s overwhelming- I focus on what I can. I lean into those around me- it’s a precious commodity that can keep you going when the world feels ugly. One day at a time- for the next 4 years…#preciouscommodity #sticktogether #artistsendure

Juggling: paintings, lecture prep, family, running, etc. It’s overwhelming. Working on this painting called “the Waiting”- a funny little painting with a serious background-it reminds me how lucky I am- my husband is here and I’m not “waiting” just juggling… #militaryspouse #contemporarypainting

Pushing through a day in the studio, on National Quitters Day. (Is this a real day?! when most New Year resolutions are ended) I was thinking how time in the studio really has to be fought for, especially as a mother… my resolution was protecting studio time! #contemporarypainter #figurativeart
