Popping up at the 22nd Ravenswood ArtWalk

It’s been a few months since I replenished earrings, and made a few more for this coming weekend. I will be popping up at the Ravenswood ArtWalk on September 14-15, 2024, from 11am to 6pm. It feels good to have creative brain space again after a long hiatus, and bending the wire was easier than […]

Main-Dempster Mile History

Today I am taking over the Main-Dempster Mile Instagram account and some of the stories warrant a bit more background that Instagram has space for. I’ve been a Main-Dempster Mile resident since 2000, and document many of the block parties and wine walks since they’re the perfect way to bump into friends! I also wrote […]

2022 Holiday Pop Ups

Hi! It’s been a couple of years… After my last holiday market at the DANK Haus in 2019 I took a temporary job that turned permanent, which was fortuitous as the Pandemic unfolded and Art Fair markets shut down. My art-making went dormant for a while, and with my computer getting clunky my blog went […]

The Weihnachtsmarkt (Christmas Market) takes place on Saturday, December 14th, 2019 from 11:00am to 6:00pm. The Dank Haus will have […]

Holiday Shop at Sacred Art

This week I dropped off ornaments at Sacred Art. Lincoln Square is starting to look festive, and the artists at Sacred Art are adding new and amazing creations to the store for the season. I had not been to Lincoln Square in a while, so I enjoyed perusing all the corners of the store and […]

Ice House Gallery Events

While I am busy in the studio preparing for the Woman’s Club of Evanston Holiday Bazaar, My Swarm and Beehive are still having a fabulous party at Ice House Gallery. With the first snow, it is wonderful to enter this oasis of flora and fauna and remember warmer days. This month, the gallery is hosting […]

Elmhurst’s 9th Annual Wilder Mansion Holiday Market

Whoops, October disappeared and I suddenly need to prepare for the Elmhurst’s 9th Annual Wilder Mansion Holiday Market! This fabulous show kicks off my Holiday season, and while it truly is the 1st weekend of November as always, it falling on the 1st feels early. We will be in the historic Wilder Mansion on Friday, November […]

Flora, Fauna and Fascination Exhibit

While I don’t have any pop ups in October, I am still part of the ongoing Flora, Fauna and Fascination exhibit. Ice House Gallery owner Hannah Litvan curated a beautiful array of artists who each have their own unique artistic expression of nature themes. The opening night was packed, and I was thrilled to see […]

Halloweenies at Artem Pop Up Gallery

It is October, and that means all the Halloween decorations are coming out. I gathered up all my stakes and most of my Halloween pendants and brought them in to Artem Pop Up Gallery last week. It is fun to change my shelf a bit and have fun with my pieces. I am not the […]

$10,000 Raised By Nasty Women

Wow, the last weekend of September was amazing. Numerous people converged upon 1100 Florence for the Nasty Women Evanston Fundraiser on September 28. They patiently lined up until the doors opened at 6 pm. Then the blinds opened and we could get our first peek at all the art work. Volunteers handed out artist lists […]
