‘ALL Women’ is a free, all ages, market event organized by the Tower District & Yellow Brick Group. Enjoy live art by women artists and shop tons of goods provided by local women-owned businesses. Owned by women from all walks of life.
I’m over the moon for this opportunity! I’ve planning something super special and will be bringing my A-game to this experience. Extra amped! I’ll be painting alongside local women artists, friends, colleagues, and artists I’ve follow and admire.

Placerville Arts Association Presentation
This February 2024 I've been invited to do an artist demo at the PAA Membership Meeting on February 12 from 2:30 - 4:30 pm at the Senior Center, 937 Spring St, Placerville.
I'll be sharing an one hour presentation and demonstration titled Multimedia Journey: From Concept to Masterpiece. I'll be sharing my insights on using tech tools and some simple techniques for basic photo-compositing and paired with graphic design principles can provide a whole new reference to from which to launch creativity.
30 x 30 with Blue Line Arts
Update: January 19, 2024
23 of the 30 paintings have sold!
I was chosen! I made the cut for this call that required a brief proposal for a challenge of creating 30 paintings in a month! I will be working on a sweet series focused on candy. Follow me on Instagram and watch the progress through my stories and posts.
57 applicants for the opportunity and it was opened up to 20 artists this year to participate. This annual challenge pushes artists to refine and often redefine their work. With the goal of making a complete artwork every day for a month, past artists have found fresh insight and established new methods of approaching art making.
Show Dates: December 2nd, 2023 to January 13th, 2024
Opening Reception: December 16th, 2023 (5pm to 8pm)
