It’s been a social few weekends for me. Spring is trying to emerge, and so are friends. After the Stumble & Relish soiree I enjoyed Sketchbook with my friend, again enjoying the Brewery Witch we sampled on International Women’s Day. I had a lovely evening at Creative Coworking on March 23. Paul Minnihan had his beautiful […]
I love the Main Dempster Mile and had a blast at the Sauce Walk. I set up at Dietrich 21, a fitness studio I pass by but had not set foot in until our Sauce Walk Pairing. Agnes took a plethora of photos, so this is quite a well-documented pop-up. Yoga teacher Gina had fun […]
This week is all about Evanston pop-ups. Thursday evening I will be at D21 for the Evanston Sauce Walk, and Friday I head over to Creative Coworking for another fun evening of libations, treats and gorgeous art. This month’s featured artists are Itala and James Merriner. I’ve admired Itala’s work before and look forward to […]

Art & Wine Night at Creative Coworking is always a fun event, but even more exciting when you’re an exhibitor. On March 18 numerous Evanstonians perused the artful mixed media collages of Melanie Deal. They also chatted under my encaustic and steel wire works on the opposite wall. I also popped up with my jewelry, […]
It’s been a fun few months preparing for Friday’s Show Opening. After creating all the substrates and bending the shapes to go on top of the pieces I had to attach the hanging hardware before fusing everything together. Then I fused the wire to the encaustic backgrounds and did the hanging test to make sure […]
