Inspiration Corporation’s One Inspired Evening fundraiser is coming up, and I’m honored to participate again this year by donating my piece, “The Stillness That Must Part” to the auction. All proceeds will go to the organization’s programs, which “help people affected by homelessness and poverty attain self-sufficiency.” A very worthy cause with with some great art to be had.
Last year I was beyond thrilled to take home 1st place in the Emerging Artist category, with the prize of a solo show at Firecat Projects in December 2014. I can’t wait to see which talented artist wins the Firecat show this year!
Learn more about One Inspired Evening here. And if you’re curious about the title of my piece, it references the Charlotte Brontë poem, “On the Death of Anne Brontë.”

I create burned wood engravings that combine my love of the textures and patterns found in nature with a deep interest in the unconscious world of dreams, symbols and mythic folklore.
