Daily Framers

The art making has been a little light lately.  I've been working on a lot of special projects.  Additionally my stepdaughter graduated from High School so there was the party to be thrown and ceremony to attend and visiting relatives to entertain. One of the ideas I've been working on with my friend and partner Tamera Rooney is to create a line a frames to offer an affordable solution for daily painters who paint in 6" x 6".  This is a great size to work in as a daily painter, but finding a prefabricated frame is next to impossible! So, really this is in response to what I started here...to make art everyday! 

You can purchase the frames at www.dailyframers.com

Right to Literacy

I was asked to created the signature identifier for Findlay-Hancock county's literacy coalition summit. The international Right to Literacy scroll was here in Findlay today.

This was my contribution today. After being signed by the attendees it is being overnighted to Paris!!!

I'm pleases with the outcome and honored to be the chosen area artist!
