Opening tomorrow:

"This and That: Unconventional Selections from the Permanent Collection", at The Frost Museum in Miami. One of my encaustics from the "Sanctum" series will be included.

Been working on several projects... a new, fairly large painting is the one that has me lying awake nights. Here is a detail of the cartoon. Been craving studio visits because this one really has me vacillating wildly, thinking that it is going to be a really important piece, or that it is going to be completely off-base. It really kind of needs to be amazing because the subject matter is going to upset lots of people for lots of different reasons.

Just returned from a commando trip to NYC.... MAD museum, FIT museum, an Amanda Palmer concert with a surprise appearance by David Byrne. Not teaching this summer, but inundated with projects. Started a new hair embroidery, researching and writing a paper for the Textile Symposium in D.C. this Fall, and working on the cartoon for my first large painting in 4 years. I know what the subject matter will be, but I have no idea what it is going to look like. Stay tuned.

Weirdposse, an Italian blog, did a piece about Victorian hair art, and included my work as a contemporary example of hair as medium.
