Cover Girl!

Exciting news.  I am a cover girl!  Not in the way that you are thinking, my work will be featured on the cover of the winter edition of Art Book Milwaukee.  Thanks Art Book, I feel like a real live artist now!  More info on where and when to pick up your copy to follow.

More Workshops!

One more workshop to add to the list!  I am a huge fan of making portfolio cases for my print series or small books to live in.  Hardbound portfolio cases are practical and beautiful so I suggest you stop over at Black Eyed Press to see what the fuss is all about.

Portfolio Case Binding Workshop

Ever wonder what to do with that series of prints or photos that is hanging around on your desk in a pile?  Creating a beautiful custom portfolio case will keep all of your papers organized and protected.  Please join Tiffany Knopow on Saturday, October 29th at Black Eyed Press to learn how to make a 5" x 7" portfolio to hold papers, prints, or photos.  Supplies are included in the workshop fee of $25.

Opening in Sheboygan!

Ritual/Active is ready for viewing.  Please attend the opening this Saturday, July 16th from 5-8 pm.  Join us in the church basement for an artist talk at 6 pm with donuts to follow.  The gallery will also be open from 11-3 for those of you enjoying some of the events in Sheboygan.

The John Michael Kohler Art Museum has a new exhibit open based on memory which looks amazing as well as the Midsummer Festival of the Arts (an arts extravangaza with live music and art everywhere!).  If you make it up to Sheboygan early enough you can catch the farmers market on the square too!  Too much goodness for one day right!

Getting ready for a show in Sheboygan....mosquito bits, donuts and tire prints......sounds fun right?

Indiana Green just around the corner

Finished the pins for artists.  I feel like I have a tiny Indiana Green on my work table.  I just need tiny glasses of wine and tiny pita and hummus.
