Curious about an Artist-in-Residence Program? Me too! For several months I have considered applying for artist-in-residence programs in various locations across the nation. I like the concept, living away from home for a few weeks – allowing yourself to focus solely on your artwork. Connecting with other artists and the community.

Guess it’s time to officially announce that our family is relocating this summer to Mt. Home, Arkansas. This summer has been packed with traveling, house hunting, and numerous other details involved in our move. I haven’t painted ALL summer. Thank goodness for my sketchbook.
