I am happy to be presenting with Compassion Arts in NYC.
Janell O’Rourke joins me in reflecting on animals in our artwork, and through the lens of other women in the visual arts, and the influence photographer and animal advocate Jo-Anne McArthur has with her powerful photography for animals.
Poet Gretchen Primack will emcee this event and read a selection of her poetry.
Jo-Anne McArthur is this year’s Artists for Ahimsa honoree and will be presented our award/painting I painted which i call The Last Picture.
Florida
This coming January I am excited to be a part of Adams State University’s Rare A.I.R. artist-in-residence program in Colorado. I was accepted to work on my State of the Union series, which at this point consists of my first painting Florida.
The project will eventually have paintings of all of the states with the positive images we associate with that state- state flag, state animal, slogan, and their attractions, and in bubbles, some of the shameful things that go on with the animals of that state.
I look forward to almost three weeks of uninterrupted painting in the provided studio space, with support and sharing with the faculty and students there.
