My work was recently selected by Brock Brake of Athen B. Gallery for Issue VI of Create! Magazine and I'm honored to be included in this fascinating curated selection of artists - many of whom I already  admire and slew of others I'm excited to explore. 

I also had the pleasure of being interviewed for this issue and you can read the full interview here detailing a bit about my path as an artist as well as some insights about my process.

Fluid Reflection. 2016. Water soluble oil on canvas. 30" x 30" 

I'm happy to announce my 10th award winning print is now available in my limited edition print collection at Minted! 'Merge' is based on a photo I took last summer in a Pacific Northwest garden near my home on Bainbridge Island. In this painting leafy branches and cedar boughs hover above golden green and yellow painterly brushstrokes leading across the surface of a pond. This piece was selected as an Editors' Pick in the latest West Elm x Minted Art Challenge.

In other Minted related news, I was in San Francisco this past weekend and had the opportunity to visit Minted headquarters as well as the Minted Local retail store in Union Square. Both were so beautiful and inspiring! And it made my day to find my print, 'Arise', available in stock in the Minted Local shop!

I'm excited to once again show my work at the downtown Seattle West Elm location. I have six new paintings on view for the month of March. I'll also be at West Elm for a Pop-Up Shop on Saturday, March 4, from 12 - 3 pm with my collection of limited edition prints on hand as well as a selection of small original paintings. If you're in the area, please stop by and say hello!

All work is available in my online shop. West Elm is located in South Lake Union at 2201 Westlake Avenue, Seattle, WA 98121

I'm excited to announce the launch of my latest limited edition print available on Minted.com. 'Silver and Gold' was selected as an Editors' Pick in the Spaces and Places Art Challenge last Fall and also won the 'Behind the Piece' Special Prize for the piece that had the most interesting story: 

“This painting is based on a photo I took from the ferry crossing between Seattle and my home on Bainbridge Island. Gray can be overwhelming here in the winter months but I’ve come to appreciate the many shades of gray found in the Pacific Northwest as seen in the green, gold, lavender and blue tones in this piece.”

'Silver and Gold'

'Silver and Gold' is available in multiple sizes and can be ordered on standard or premium archival paper, unframed or framed in one of Minted's seventeen custom framing options. Shipping is free with the code SHIPFREE

Minted and West Elm have teamed up again this year to select new art prints and I have submitted 7 paintings in this challenge. Winning entries will be sold as prints online and in West Elm stores as well as on Minted.com. I would be so excited to see my work made available at West Elm! Please take a moment and vote for each of my entries - voting closes at 10 am on Feb. 15. Just click each of these images to be taken directly to the voting pages. Thank you in advance!
