Today I got the distinct privilege of accepting the 2025 Maine Arts Fellow award in visual arts at the Governor’s house in the state capital.
It’s an incredible honor to receive this award. I’m so grateful to the Maine Arts Commission and the state of Maine for recognizing my work.

Time to start thinking about the veggie growing season. Every year I map out my plantings ahead of time, which helps me track seasonal crop rotations and succession plans. Because I expanded my garden plot throughout last season, this year I needed to upgrade my map to include all the new beds 👨🌾🤓

It’s a 6’ wide piece and will hang from this custom wall mounted shelf.
Just for fun, i added some old graph paper and plexi to give the top side of the mount some intrigue. Hardly anyone will ever see this detail.

Been working on a new suspended piece for my upcoming show at UMaine Orono.
I came up with this design for a public art proposal that ultimately got rejected. Regardless, I was eager to see it actualized.
Starting Feb. 7, you’ll be able to see it in person at the Lord Hall Gallery at UMO

How do we feel about occasional #dogcontent? At least a third (or more) of the photos on my phone are of my three cute AF dogs.
